If you like stories with adventure, love and animals then these are the books for you. Carl was a wonderful person to both animals and people. Any of his stories are great to read to the children to let them know what is was like to grow up in those times and how to overcome the hardships of life as well as the hardships of different cultures around the world.

Delight and a Treasure for the Horse Lover
This story about the noble Arabian horse and a journey in Arabia from a time long gone is wonderful. It was a treasure to read under the bed covers late at night as a young girl--and just as delightful many years later as a grandmother. (I do plan to pass the book on to my horse-loving granddaughter.) If you love horses and the breathtaking beauty and spirit of the Arabian one, you will enjoy this no matter the age. There's much to be learned about a land that bred and used such a horse to carry warriors. This book provides that with beautiful language and images. I absolutely recommend this book.
