A truly timeless adventure of a horse with an unbreakable spirit and a bond that eventually goes almost full circle. Animal lovers will love the story of Black Beauty even though the tears will be almost as frequent as the smiles. An essential read. This is the paperback edition but if you’re looking for a gift purchase then look no further than the Everyman’s Library edition. We also rate very highly a new edition from Oxford Children’s Books.
Suspenseful, deeply moving story of a horse's experiences at the hands of many owners, accompanied by 35 realistic, ready-to-colour scenes that follow Black Beauty from his carefree days as a young colt through bleak and arduous experiences with often cruel handlers.
