About the Author
Flora McDonnell says of Giddy-Up! Let's Ride!, "When I was a child, I learnt to love riding from my grandmother. She recited the old nursery rhyme, This is the way the lady rides, making me walk, trot, canter and gallop on her knee. I imagined myself on ponies, horses, donkeys, elephants, camels - all sorts of animals. And in this book I've painted some of them for you. I hope you will love riding them too." Flora McDonnell's other books for children include I Love Animals, her first book, which won the 1995 Mother Goose Award; I Love Boats; Splash!; and Flora McDonnell's ABC.
