In the book, Black Beauty, a horse, tells the story of his life. It starts with happy memories of when he was young and was living with his mother on Farmer Grey’s farm. Farmer Grey is a kind and loving master but his mother warns him that not all masters are the same,“There are good men like our master, but there are bad men too.”
Farmer Grey sells Black Beauty to Squire Gordon, where he makes two very good friends: Merrylegs and Ginger. After that Black Beauty changes homes and owners many times. He often has to work under difficult conditions, working long hours and wearing a short rein. At the end of the book he is sold to three ladies who look after him well. And he is reunited with a young g room who loved and looked after him at Squire Gordon's house.
Anna Sewell was an excellent horsewoman and driver and she believed that we should look after animals. During Anna's lifetime,in Victorian England, horses were work animals and were treated badly.

Reading Makes a Full Man
Reading is very important in our life. We can get knowledge through reading. It cannot only open our mind but also make us cleverer. Besides, reading is also
one of the most important ways to learn a foreign language like English.
Textbooks, newspapers, magazines, storybooks and other kinds of reading materials can help us know more about the outside world and help us grow into excellent persons.
I'm planning to read at least two books in the coming holiday. And I'll spend more time reading every day during my senior high school. Reading makes a full man! Let's start reading now.
