4 Taking care of animals Reading UNIT 1 A  R ead the web page. Why does Janice think Black Beauty is a great book? Reading level: Ages 9-12 Reviews from readers. Black Beauty (Children’s Classics) By ANNA SEWELL Reviewer: Janice Nell, 12, Edinburgh, Scotland I am reading the book Black Beauty. This book is about the life and adventures of an extraordinary horse called Black Beauty. I love this book. I think it teaches us important lessons about friendship. Black Beauty’s best friend is a horse called Ginger. I feel sorry for her because most of her owners treat her very badly and she is unhappy. Black Beauty also suffers – one of his owners dislikes horses and is cruel to him. But Black Beauty is always kind and gentle to everyone. Black Beauty has many adventures. The one I like best is when he helps some people in a storm. They want him to cross a bridge but Black Beauty knows something is wrong and he refuses to move. My favourite character is the cab driver Jerry Barker. He is a good friend to Black Beauty. Jerry never loses his temper and his family takes care of Black Beauty very well. I believe many children will love this book. The story is exciting and there are lots of interesting characters. But for me it is great because it talks about the importance of friendship.
