About the book
Black Beauty by Anna Sewell is told from the view of a horse named Black Beauty growing up in 19th-century England. As Beauty is sold to different owners, he experiences both loving care from kind masters and hard times with cruel or careless ones, like being forced to work long hours as a London taxi horse. Through all his struggles, Beauty stays gentle and patient. In the end, the story teaches us why it is so important to treat animals with love, kindness, and respect instead of cruelty.
