Retold for younger readers, Black Beauty tells the story of a working horse in Victorian England. He has a series of masters who are often cruel and thoughtless. He survives flood, fire and fever until he feels ready to die, but then he is taken to yet another horse sale... This retelling has been shortened and illustrated for younger readers.
