A story told by a horse ๐ŸŽ

Black Beauty is told entirely from the horse's point of view. It was Anna Sewell's only book, and she wrote it to encourage people to treat horses with kindness. Over 150 years later, it's still one of the best-loved children's stories in the world.

Did you read it as a child?
Tell us in the comments, and then come and share it with the next generation. ๐Ÿ’›
