Black Beauty is the autobiography of a nineteenth century
English horse. Simply written, with a vocabulary that's easily read by
a young reader, it's a great story for anyone, young or old, who ever had
a love for horses, and a good novel for reading aloud to children. It's
the only novel that Anna Sewell ever wrote.
