Black Beauty

Rate this book
Suspenseful, deeply moving story of a horse's experiences at the hands of many owners, accompanied by 35 realistic, ready-to-color scenes that follow Black Beauty from his carefree days as a young colt through bleak and arduous experiences with often cruel handlers.

The specially abridged new text, set in large, easy-to-read type, relates a story that not only reveals many social problems of the late nineteenth-century but will tug at the heartstrings of animal lovers of all ages.

1. HELBLING LANGUAGE / Level 2

2. 6/3=90 min

3. horse/selling/groom/damage/friend/death/pleasant

4. a) Often, before I dream I am still in orchard with my old friends Ginger and Merrylegs, and we are all together under the big chestnut tree.

b) I like this sentence which is mentioned about Black Beauty's feeling. He get a happy life, but he misses friends who have already died. I moved it.

5. I think person's liberties and feeling of horses are written in this book. Life of main character and around him is really hard caused by selfish attitude of human. Finally he can be happy with the great groom however he lost his best friend.

This book is one of the best books I've ever read! I learned a lot about how to treat animals, it was very touching, it was very interesting so I would keep reading it! You can hardly put down a book like that! It was amazing!
