You won't want to get out of the car!!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Great story that really sucks you in! It's not very often I come across a book that I sit in my car to listen to even thought I'm where I wanted to go! Easy to listen too and not predictable whatsoever!

Great Read

I could not put this down. I love horses, and while this book was about horses, it's story was about so much more.

Dreadful

I love horse books. This story sounded good in the synopsis, but it was dreadful. Listening to this book was so boring. The characters were not well developed nor was the story. The writer also knows nothing about horses and horsemanship. Don't waste your money or time on this one

CHEEEZZZZEY!!!

What disappointed you about If Wishes Were Horses?

I guess because I am a horse lover and the fact that I worked on a breeding farm for many years things that he said in the book were irritating. You cannot tell the sex of a foal with an ultrasound at late stage gestation. Horses don’t typically stand around in their stalls with bridles on, halters maybe but not bridles. And when foals are born, people DO NOT cut the umbilical cord! Just made the story a bit goofy and unbelievable.

What could Robert Barclay have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

The author should have done his research on horses if he wanted to have them as the backdrop for his book!

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Mike Chamberlain?

He did fine

Juvenile

What would have made If Wishes Were Horses better?

Seems to have been written by a sixth grader, story and dialog

What was most disappointing about Robert Barclay’s story?

too predictable, much like a soap opera
