If I was a horse, I would gallop all day.

I could go anywhere I want . . .

If you were a horse, what would you do? Could you fit in your clothes? Would you give your little sister a ride? Would your brother even notice?

Gallop along with two-time Caldecott Medallist Sophie Blackall through this riotous day in the life of a child who imagines their life as a horse. Sophie's delightful text and resonant illustrations that feature a giant horse in familiar settings offer a visual feast, a grand dose of joy and a celebration of the real power of imagination to help us navigate the world.

'This is truly a book that will be treasured by any child who loves horses . . . Absolutely gorgeous and brilliant fun for ages 2+' READINGS
