I asked her what her favourite story was when she was a girl and she said 'Black Beauty'. Not very hopeful, I ordered her this copy and am absolutely delighted that she has nearly finished it. It has bought lovely memories back to her. It is an excellent size for her to hold and the print is just perfect. I will be ordering her more books, especially childrens classics as these are easy for her to read. Thank you publishers, a really great book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Read *by M***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 April 2020* I do have a confession to make, which I have mentioned before on this site, and that is that I had never read this as a child. For myself then, one of the world’s most loved children’s books has only now been read by me. An instant success on first publication this was Anna Sewell’s only book, and she died a few months after publication, although I am sure she was gratified by its success, which did help to raise awareness by many to animal cruelty and make changes in laws and people’s perceptions and attitudes to the use of animals.When this was first written, as with so many of our books that we give to children to read, this was actually meant for adults Brought up a Quaker and a definite horse lover so this book is really an autobiography attributed to the horse of the title, as he narrates his life and stories of other horses that he meets and works with, or shares stables with. Today of course the novel has perhaps lost some of its righteousness due to its audience and the way things have changed and are still changing with regards to animal welfare. At the time this first came on the market though, things were different and some groups even gave copies of this to people who worked with horses to wake them up to what was happening, making it probably one of the most important, and possibly the most important publication on animal welfare. Attributed to the stoppage of check reins and people discussing and advocating the abolition of other practises and looking for improvements, so this novel of course makes us think not only of animals but of ourselves as well, as we all know the quotation from the bible which tells us to ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you’, which of course you do not have to be of a religious frame of mind to understand. Full of incident and a sheer joy to read, as well as thoughtful it is no wonder that so many people enjoy this, and I am glad that I have actually had the time to read it myself. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ hard-hitting and brilliant *by L***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 July 2016* i read this as a child, but didn't really appreciate it much. And usually i'm not one for the classics, since i tend to find them rather overrated. However, when i reread Black Beauty, i was so impressed. Sewell brilliantly tells the story from the point of view of Black Beauty himself, and his life in various stages, and all the things he learns about humans and other horses. He goes from loving, gentle owners, to some who mistreat him near to the point of death. The author does an amazing job of conveying their distaste with those who mistreat animals, without being too preachy.What i find so sad is that so many of the issues raised in this book are things that are still issues today, animal cruelty, bad use of animals for fashion, overworking etc. It's sad that in the many years since this was written, things may have changed, but not improved.definitely worth a read for adults, as it really hammers home some heartbreaking points, but is still a beautiful story. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/201110213-ladybird-classics-black-beauty-kindle-edition](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/201110213-ladybird-classics-black-beauty-kindle-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
