Black Beauty

Black Beauty begins life in a peaceful meadow with his mother, Duchess, and grows up learning trust, training, and the ways of people. As he moves through changing fortunes, he faces a fox hunt, city work in London, injury, and exhaustion. Yet even in hardship, kindness appears again and again. Told in Black Beauty’s own voice, this classic story follows his journey from comfort to suffering and, finally, to hope and care.
