Ladybird Classics: Black Beauty by Anna Sewell

Black Beauty is the autobiography of a horse. This gentle book follows the life a well bred horse from his early childhood in a pleasant meadow through a myriad of owners-some kind and some cruel-until fate returns him to the meadow in which he was born. A wonderful story that will remain with you and your child.
Anna Sewell (Author)
Anna Sewell (1820-78) was born in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk. Black Beauty, her only book, was completed and published in 1877, just a few months before she died, so she did not live to know of the book's huge success. Apart from being a good story, Black Beauty was instrumental in changing people's attitudes towards horses, and domestic animals in general.
