His mother warns him that there are bad, cruel men in the world, but Black Beauty sees none of it in his fine, happy home. Until the day when he is sold, when his life changes immeasurably and he finally sees the truth in his mothers words. As he moves from master to master, Beautys adventures will captivate readers, and June Brigmans wonderful illustrations will capture their imaginations. Average Rating:

So, I was particularly struck by the earnest renderings of June Brigman and Roy Richardson in their labor of love and timeless beauty: Black Beauty. For any reading this who know not the tale, suffice it to say this will be an excellent, pithy and tasty introduction. The story moves right along and the illustrations capture the spirit of the age and of the plucky steeds ... Read More
