In the lush meadows of his youth, a proud black horse knows only freedom and gentle care. But when sold into the hands of strangers, his life changes forever. Through a succession of masters, he witnesses the extremes of human nature-kindness that soothes, cruelty that wounds, and hardship that tests his spirit. Alongside other horses, each with their own struggles, he endures the working world while holding to hope. His journey is one of survival, resilience, and the enduring bond between animals and the humans who shape their fate.
First published in 1877, Anna Sewell's Black Beauty transformed society's understanding of animal welfare. By telling the story through the eyes of a horse, Sewell exposed the harsh realities faced by working animals and inspired a movement toward more humane treatment. The novel's themes of compassion, empathy, and justice resonated deeply, influencing early animal rights legislation. More than a children's classic, Black Beauty remains a powerful voice for kindness and change.
