    About this audiobook

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    Black Beauty, a gentle horse, recounts his life story. He starts young, living a happy life on a farm. But as fate unfolds, Black Beauty changes hands, experiencing kindness from some owners and cruelty from others. Through city streets pulling cabs and quiet countryside fields, Black Beauty witnesses the best and worst of humanity. The tale, told from a horse's perspective, argues for better treatment of animals and highlights the importance of compassion.

    Author

    Anna Sewell

    Anna Sewell was born in 1820 into a Quaker family whose respect for horses was out of step with the common view of the time, that animals should be worked until they dropped. Disabled in a fall aged 14, Anna lived all her life with her parents but became an expert carriage driver and, as editor and stern critic, helped her mother, Mary Wright Sewell, become a successful author of evangelical children's books. Anna wrote Black Beauty, her only book, in the last years of her life, as a plea for more humane treatment of horses. She died in 1878, a year after the novel was published to wide acclaim.
