"The Black Horse" is a children's literature work written by British writer Anna Sewell on her hospital bed. It is called the first real animal novel.
Anna was permanently disabled when she was 14 years old. Out of strong dissatisfaction with human cruelty to animals, she wrote this touching story with a horse as the narrator while she was seriously ill. It took a total of six years.
In the novel, the black horse was well-trained and treated tenderly by its owner, but it also saw the cruelty and savagery of human beings, and experienced a life of constant torture. In the end, it was exhausted. After a long recuperation, it was adopted by a good family. This was not bad, after all, it did not have to die early like its companions.
Anna's only work is "The Black Horse", and it can be said that she devoted all her efforts to it. She truly presents the experiences of horses, allowing adults to realize their own shallowness and cruelty when reading, allowing children to understand and care about horses while reading, and establish the concept of making friends and getting along well with animals.
Overall, "The Black Horse" is suitable for parents and children to read together and grow together.
Reader comments
The book "The Black Horse" is very suitable for children to read and can cultivate children's love for animals. The book writes about what he sees, hears and feels from Beauty's perspective, which is very sympathetic. Sometimes both humans and horses have a very hard life, so hard that people want to end everything, but we can only admire those who live in the gutter but still have sunshine in their hearts. Beauty has met many kind-hearted people in her life, such as John Manly, James Howard, Gordons, Joe Green, Jerry, and Polly. They cared for and loved horses and regarded horses as their friends and relatives. But there are also many people who abuse horses, exploit them, and use them as working machines. Fortunately, in the end, Beauty returned to her original place and spent the rest of her life peacefully.
This book is very touching. The story of the black horse made me see the emotions of animals and the preciousness of life. We should be kind to animals, they also have the ability to feel pain. This is not only a book for children, but also allows adults to reflect on their own behavior. Recommended for everyone to read!
