Hi all!
I'd like to gift an interesting and fun book to the daughter of my cousin. I've only met her once (a couple of months back) and exceptionally I'll be spending the holidays with her and her parents this year.
This is what I know about her :
– she's crazy about horses (I don't think she does horse riding or anything like that, but she seems to really like horses according to her dad)
– she's a shy little girl
– she's an only child
– she reads better than her dad did at her age lol but she still sees reading as "homework"
I'd like to give her something that can hopefully help spark the joy of reading for pleasure in her. Her dad told me he's collecting books for now and later, hoping that she does grow to love reading.
I'd like to find a book that has horses in it and a girl MC, maybe even better if it's a group of girls. Something fun and if possible with some drawings or pictures, so it's not just "plain" text. Can you think of anything?

The American Girl brand came out with some choose your own adventure books like 10 years ago. They are pretty cute books for kids. One in particular has a horse theme it’s called “Taking the Reins”. I own all of them in a house with 3 daughters and they have been well-loved books.
I liked The Black Stallion by Walter Farley as a kid. I think it may be a series.
