SHOW STRIDES BOOK SERIES: PUBLISHED BY THE PLAID HORSE
About Show Strides
Show Strides is a middle grade novel series about riding, showing, horsemanship, and the special friendships we form with our animals and fellow horse lovers. Set on the sprawling grounds of a large hunter jumper barn, the series features a diverse range of characters, from the lesson kid to the A-rated show regular, and everyone in between.
While the reading level is appropriate for young riders, the series has fans of all ages! Read more about our books, including excerpts from all four novels, here.
