Answer:
Dear Mrs. GaNun (my principal),
I recently read Black Beauty (or in full Black Beauty: The Autobiography of a Horse) by Ms. Anna Sewell and enjoyed it. Black Beauty, was the only novel by Ms. Sewell and one of the first major animal stories in children’s literature. The author wrote it “because she wanted to encourage kindness, sympathy, and an understanding treatment of not just horses, but other animals as well”; it was published in 1877, only half a year before Sewell’s death.
Black Beauty is a beautiful, jet black, well-born, and a very well-bred horse of the age when there were horse-drawn carriages instead of cars, and he narrates the story. He is owned by 3 kind masters in the beginning but is sold to more crueler and abusive owners as the story continues. In time, he collapses from overwork and abuse, but in the end he is sold to another kind owner and recovers. His final owners have promised to never sell him so his problems are over. Beauty is based on an ideal horse—obedient, willing, intelligent, and courageous. Sewell’s careful observation and extensive descriptions of the behavior or horses make the novel more realistic.
