  10.   Black Beauty


Black Beauty (1877) by Anna Sewell is a story set in Victorian England, and details the journey of Beauty, a working horse that learns throughout the course of his life that humans can be his greatest friend or his most dangerous enemy.



One of the most interesting parts about this book is the fact that it isn’t written from a human perspective, but is instead narrated by Beauty.



This book contains themes illustrating the importance of caring for animals and understanding the feelings of other living beings, which is why we highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t had the opportunity of reading it yet.



If you enjoy the book, there is a movie version as well, which contains many of the same messages and themes (although, like many film adaptations, it isn’t exactly the same).
