About the Book:
This popular classic by Anna Sewell tells the story of a horse named “Black Beauty”, told in his own words. The narration by the horse himself brings readers closer to his life, so that they may experience everything along with him on a personal level.
The book begins with his idyllic life as a carefree black colt on a farm in England, changing over time to harshness and cruelty at the hands of men. Black Beauty has several owners during his life, some being good while others are wicked.
Happily, friendships are forged with other horses along the way, including Ginger and Merrylegs, who ensure many lighter and happier times. The tale of Black Beauty is one of hope and resolve, the moral being the importance of extending kindness and fair treatment to all animals: the language used by the author is simple and straightforward in order to inform people about how to treat horses humanely.
