A story of treachery and deceit, of pain and forgiveness.

Black Beauty is not only one of the best known story in the English language, it is also one of the finest tales ever written. The story is told through the eyes of Black Beauty and this first person narrative gives us the oppertunity of seeing the world as he does. In the course of the story Beauty goes from one home to the other, suffering horribly at the hands of his owners but never losing the hope that it will get better. Eventually Beauty, now a cabhorse, is reunited with his dearest friend Ginger. Ginger is weak and thin and it is not long before he watches the corpse of his beautiful friend being carted off after being worked to death. It seems as though Beauty himself will be butchered but at his lowest moment he is saved by a young boy and his grandfather who feed him and care for him and bring him back to his former self. The book ends with Beauty finding a new home with one of the stableboys, now a young man, from his youth - Joe Green. Joe recognises Beauty and the tale rounds off with Beauty living out his days in peace and thinking of his friends whom he lost through mans barbarity. It is speculated that Anna Sewell wrote Black Beauty to help abolish the bearing rein, and if this is the case then I am glad to say it seems to have worked. Beauty speaks bitterly of the bearing rein and it must be said that anyone who uses a bearing rein is an inhuman, callous monster. Black Beauty if one of the great literary masterpieces and one that everyone should know.

I really really really like this book.

I like this book because of the way he tells the story and the excitement in it.I also like the pictures.But the charicters are a little confusing.So its hard to follow.

Excellent

Very well done. We use this text in our Career Planning Psychology class at Tarrant County Junior College, S.C., Ft. Worth, Texas, in the Women In New Roles Program. The class is blended and integrated with Human Relations Psychology. It is a college credit program (WINR) for women in transition of returning to school. It blends beautifully with our Human Relations Psychology text...
