BLACK BEAUTY - ANNA
SEWELL
One of a trio of books
my friend Liz loaned me to read after she read it with her grandkids.
This book was written some time ago, preceding other
horse-narratives/autobiographies. The story is now a classic known
worldwide.
I have formerly watched
the movie, but that was a long time ago and I had not recalled the
story beyond the basics. I have also ridden in the past, but knew
barely anything about horses at the time. Once again, I enjoyed
looking at life from an animals' point of view - while wondering how
realistic the author is being, how animals 'actually' think or sense
in comparison to what an author estimates, etc. (Are they being as
accurate as I am when it comes to pigeons?)
