In 'Black Beauty' by Anna Sewell, the reader is swept into a touching narrative that follows the life of a beautiful horse through various owners and experiences. Sewell's gentle yet poignant writing style provides a unique perspective on animal welfare and the treatment of horses during the Victorian era. Depicting the emotional inner world of a horse, the book is both heartwarming and thought-provoking, making it a timeless classic in children's literature. Sewell's use of anthropomorphism and vivid descriptions add depth to the story and offer readers a glimpse into the hardships faced by working animals of the time. 'Black Beauty' serves as both a charming story and a powerful social commentary, highlighting the need for compassion and understanding in our treatment of animals. Anna Sewell, an advocate for animal welfare, penned 'Black Beauty' with the intention of shedding light on the mistreatment of horses and promoting empathy towards all living creatures. Her own experiences with horses and her desire to create change in society are evident in the passionate and empathetic portrayal of her equine protagonist. Delving into the emotional and physical struggles of Black Beauty, Sewell's work invites readers to consider the impact of their actions on the lives of animals and encourages them to reflect on the significance of kindness and compassion. I highly recommend 'Black Beauty' to readers of all ages, as it not only offers a captivating story but also inspires reflection on important ethical issues that are still relevant today.

Anna Sewell

Anna Sewell was born in 1820 and lived with her family in Norfolk and then in a village on the outskirts of London. At the age of fourteen Anna injured her ankles in a fall, and was severely disabled for the rest of her life.

She had to travel everywhere in horse-drawn carriages, and so Anna was always concerned with the treatment of the animals she so relied upon.

She wrote Black Beauty in order to convince a wide audience of the importance of the humane treatment of animals. It is her only novel, and Anna Sewell died shortly after it's publication, little guessing how well-known and widely loved her story would become.
