My mil gave my dd the White Stallion of Lipizza by Henry that she'd had way back in 1964 and wants to take her to see these famous horses from Vienna perform in March.

I'd like to have a unit study on this book to do with my 7/8 year old dd. Can anyone help me out? I just had a baby and have suffered too much brain cell loss to think of it on my own.

Thanks in advance!

My dd loves horses and saw the Lipizzaner horses last year for her birthday. They were so impressive!!!

We have this book and enjoy it. My dd has been enjoying History of the Horse Study Guide from Beautiful Feet Books. It incorporates White Stallion of Lipizza in the unit study as well as a number of other great horse books. If your dd loves horses, she'll love this study guide!

There is a movie by Disney ...Miracle of the White Stallions -- which is great fun to watch.

She will so enjoy going to see them live ... what a great mom you have!

BTW, since our youngest was born when we were living in Austria, for his first birthday we got him a rocking horse and named him Lippizzaner, or "Zaner" for short! At 6 he still rides his very own Zaner!
