ages featuring Big Guy, a retired show horse, with his horse and human friends from the middle grade novel "Big Guy: A School Horse Story" by Celia Ryker, illustrated by Kathy Connell.

Big Guy is a big horse dealing with big changes. His looks and talent have helped him win blue ribbons at the biggest horse shows in the country. But when old age and injury make him unfit for winning prizes, his owner retires him to a position as a school horse, giving riding lessons to children. At the school horse barn, Big Guy meets Shorty, Kaiser, Slippy and many other horses who teach him about running in wide open fields and being part of a herd. He also meets Little Lisa, the smallest rider with the biggest heart. These line drawings leave room for plenty of imagination and tell the story of Big Guy's horse adventures!
