This is the story of a horses life, told by the horse herself. Learn how it feels to be broken in to the bit, to be ridden until you are dropping with exhaustion, to pull a cab around the grimy streets of London, to make friends and be separated from them, to be beaten by some owners and to encounter great kindness from others. Throughout her life, in all the different situations in which she finds herself, Black Beauty remains gentle, strong and forgiving.This book has an enormous influence on attitudes to horses after publication and is generally credited with causing painful bearing reins to go out if fashion. After reading this moving tale, you will never be able to pass a horse again without trying to imagine how it is feeling.
