Black Beauty

Black Beauty — a classic of children's literature, the only book by English writer Anna Sewell (1820–1878). This novel is narrated from the perspective of the horse itself, Black Beauty, who lived a long and not always easy life that... horses faced in the 19th century — working to the brink for the good of people. But Black Beauty did not lose faith in human kindness, and he encountered good owners who cared for him and gave him hope for a happy future. Anna Sewell knew first-hand about the life of horses in her time — as a teenager, she suffered a serious leg injury and therefore often used horse-drawn carriages and learned to understand these intelligent animals, loving them with all her heart. Black Beauty — a magnificent novel that will show readers the world through the eyes of animals and allow them to immerse themselves in their feelings and experiences. The book features a pre-revolutionary translation, signed with the initials E. B., published in 1901 by the Sytin Publishing House. For middle school age.
