Publisher's summary

The story is told in the first person (or "first horse") as an autobiographical memoir told by a highbred horse named Black Beauty - beginning with his carefree days as a foal on an English farm, to his difficult life pulling cabs in London, to his happy retirement in the country. Along the way, he meets with many hardships and recounts many tales of cruelty and kindness.

The relationship between the two horses and how they seem to connect time and again.

What about Steve Corona’s performance did you like?

Awesome.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
