A horse’s lIfe, told wIth honesty, courage, and an unbreakable spIrIt. From the gentle fields of his youth to the busy streets of Victorian England, Black Beauty’s journey is marked by kindness, cruelty, friendship, and loss. Through his eyes, we witness the best and worst of humanity—and the deep bonds that can form between people and animals when compassion guides the way. First published in 1877, Anna Sewell’s only novel is more than a story—it is a plea for mercy and understanding. By giving a voice to the voiceless, Black Beauty has touched millions of hearts and inspired generations to treat all living creatures with respect.
