This is a pamphlet not a book! April 3, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
About 19 pages of information and pictures make this book very poor value I'm afraid. My wife laughed out loud when I gave it to her.
great infomation January 21, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
After buying a gaint of a horse at 17hh who stood on my foot more often that i sat on him i brought this book. and as soon as i had done "Join up" the first time things changed he started to follow me in his feild respect my space and even lift his nose for a kiss. i did join up 3 times in 3 weeks and i never looked back. Once he hear my car or saw it he was at the gate before i was aprked adn out of the car. I can't wait to get the rest of these series as i am buying a foal soon.
Expensive but well illustrated and explained November 29, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Thinking the packagers had forgotten to include a book in the substantial packaging, I was a bit surprised to open it and find a booklet with only 20 pages of useful information for something of this price. If you can find it for around half of the RRP, I'd consider it then to be good value.
The illustrations and photos are very good and put across the methods of `join up' and `follow up' very well. However, Monty Roberts who discovered and invented the terms, I feel enlightens the reader just as well (albeit only in words) in his book The Man Who Listens To Horses. This also gives the history of how he discovered this method of communicating with horses as well as being a good read.
Despite my misgivings on this booklet, it hasn't deterred me from ordering another of Kelly Marks' books!
If I could, I'd give it 20 stars March 4, 2003 78 out of 80 found this review helpful
This is a brilliant book, as are all of the titles by Kelly Marks in this series. Creating a bond gives an excellent desription of the process of 'Join-up' along with good photographs and clear diagrams. It then goes on to frequently asked questions about the process and beyond - again giving concise answers. Anyone wanting to form a closer relationship with their horse should at least read this book. It might be short, but it is well worth the money and crams a lot of information in. An essential purchase for all horse lovers.
