What are some beginner-level books to learn about Buddhism?

Here are two of the best introductions to Buddhism for beginners:(1) Basic Teaching of the Buddha, compiled and translated with a reading guide by Glenn Wallis (N.Y.: Modern Library, 2007).(2) In the Buddha's Words, edited, translated and introduced by Bhikkhu Bodhi (Boston: Wisdom, 2005).The Wallis book is significantly shorter than Bhikkhu Bodhi's collection of readings. Both are excellently organized. (I wish either of those books had been around when I first wanted to seriously figure out what Buddhism was about.)The best introduction to Zen Buddhism remains Philip Kapleau's The Three Pillars of Zen. Also, unlike the other two, it contains instructions on how to begin practicing at home on your own.

Should a person who has always ridden Western and never English start in a Beginner class for English I would think so but my friend thinks she wouldn't have to...?

Yes, it would be beneficial for someone who has always ridden Western and never English to start in a Beginner class for English riding. English riding techniques and tack are different from Western, so starting at a beginner level can help them learn the new skills and become comfortable with the different riding style. It's better to start at a level that matches their experience to ensure they learn the fundamentals properly.
