This summary of the Black Beauty story is profusely
illustrated with full-color drawings of horses, clothing,
and artifacts of Victorian England. An introduction
explains the context of the story and its impact on the
care and treatment of horses. Ten short chapters follow,
carefully capturing the essence of the original book.
Sidebars feature photographs and illustrations with
descriptions of words and terms that may not be familiar
to young readers. A glossary in the back contributes to
further understanding. Some biographical information
about Sewell is included. This is a good introduction to
both the study of horses and the enjoyment of horse
stories.
