Reach for this book when your toddler is craving physical play or needs a gentle way to process the 'scary-fun' feeling of moving fast and taking a tumble. It is the perfect choice for a high-energy transition from active play to storytime, mirroring the kinetic rhythm of a pony ride through its bouncy, repetitive text. The story follows a cat, dog, pig, and duck as they pile onto a horse for a rollicking ride that ends in a soft pile of hay. At its heart, this is a book about trust and the joy of shared experiences. For children aged 0 to 3, it validates the thrill of asking for 'faster!' while providing the security of a safe landing. Parents will appreciate the way it models requested boundaries and enthusiastic consent in play, all wrapped in a humorous, rhythmic package that is a delight to read aloud.
