A gorgeous new deluxe paperback edition from the Pushkin Press Classics series of one of the most famous animal stories in the world.

Featuring a stunning foiled cover, inside cover printings, and beautiful designed flaps!

An enduringly beloved classic of children's literature, Black Beauty is one of the most famous animal stories ever written. Told from the perspective of its horse protagonist, Black Beauty, Anna Sewell's only novel exposes the cruelty experienced by animals at the hand of humans. It is a poignant and heartwarming entreaty for kindness and empathy that every child should read.

The novel begins with Black Beauty's memories of his idyllic life as a young colt. In particular, he recalls the teachings of his mother, Duchess, who tells Black Beauty that he must always be gentle and good. When he moves to a new home after being purchased by the kindly Squire Gordon, Black Beauty tries his best to make Duchess proud.

But though his early years are happy, Black Beauty's luck soon turns when his loving owners are forced to sell him. Passed from home to home, Black Beauty's life turns from one of comfort and kindness to one of hard labor and cruelty. But despite the many hardships he faces, Black Beauty's spirit never breaks, and he continues to treat everyone with the compassion and respect that Duchess once taught him.

Part of the gorgeous Pushkin Children's Classics series, this deluxe paperback edition is the perfect addition to a young reader's library.
