Summary "Black Beauty, Young Folks' Edition" by Anna Sewell is a heartfelt novel written in the late 19th century, specifically during the Victorian era. This classic tale provides an insightful perspective on animal welfare through the life story of a horse, highlighting the cruelty and kindness he experiences throughout his life. The narrative unfolds from the horse's point of view, offering readers a unique lens into his world and the treatment he receives at the hands of humans. The story begins with Black Beauty's idyllic youth in a meadow under the care of a kind master and his wise mother, Duchess. As Black Beauty grows, he is sold to various owners, each representing different aspects of human nature—some are caring and gentle, while others are harsh and abusive. Black Beauty encounters numerous challenges, including the brutality of hunting, the rigors of cab work in London, and the misfortunes faced by his friend Ginger. Despite these hardships, the novel emphasizes themes of empathy and compassion, ultimately showing that love and kindness can prevail. The book serves not only as an engaging story but also as a powerful advocate for the humane treatment of animals. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
