Black Beauty (1877) is not just the story of an animal, but a moving account of a life marked by tenderness, hardship, and hope. Told from the perspective of the horse himself, this timeless work transports us to 19th-century England, where the fate of a noble creature can change with every new hand that guides him. From a carefree youth in green pastures to the noisy streets of London, Beauty endures both human kindness and cruelty with dignity and courage. Anna Sewell wrote this book as a plea against animal mistreatment and a powerful defense of compassion, leaving behind a legacy that has touched millions of hearts around the world.

Anna Sewell (1820-1878) was a British writer whose only novel, Black Beauty, became a universal classic of children's literature and a powerful plea against animal cruelty. Born in Great Yarmouth, England, she lived most of her life with mobility issues, which led her to rely on horse-drawn carriages and develop a deep empathy for horses. Published just months before her death, Black Beauty had a lasting impact on social awareness in her time.
