Title: Black Beauty
Author: Anna Sewell
Pages: 100/250
So, in the next part of the book, many interesting things happen. First, Black Beauty has to ride his master during a stormy day and in the middle of the flood. Luckily, everything goes well. Then the next day, Black Beauty's master receives a letter that a man is interested in one of his servants, James who is also taking care of the horses. They accept the offer and James leaves to his new master. His replacement is a 14-year old boy Joe who is a hard working boy.
Oh, I forgot to mention two other very important things which happen in the meantime. Both of them are bad. The first is that one night while the horses were sleeping, a fire started in the stable. Luckily, the other man who takes care of the horses saw it on time and managed to come and save the horses before it was too late.
The other important thing that happened before James left is when the master's wife got very ill and James had to ride to the doctor as fast as possible and get some medicine as well as to call the doctor to come check the lady. He, of course took Black Beauty with him. It was a long and difficult journey to there. To make things even harder, it was raining. When they arrived to the doctor, the doctor agreed to come check her. This meant that there was another hard gallop in front of Black Beauty. By the time they got home, the horse was dead tired and wasn't feeling well. He didn't feel good for a couple of days. In fact, some people even thought he would die but he didn't.
Soon after James left, the master and his family had to leave as well because of the mistress's health, They decided to give Black Beauty to some friends of the master. Black Beauty soon found out that living there would not be an easy task. The new master was a female and she had very high standards. She was more strict than the master he had before.
#2: Why did you and your partner choose this novel? In the first pages, are you pleased with your selection? Explain both of your feelings.
Well, it was me who wanted to read this book. I told her that it should be a very nice story because I watched a cartoon based on this book and I loved it. We are both very pleased with this novel. It was a good thing we chose this book. I like it because it tells a nice story in a calm voice. Also, the book is not too aggressive but not too boring. My mom likes it because it is full of messages and it shows the good and important traits which should be used.

This book seems very emotional. I think Black Beauty seems like the average house pet because of its loyalty. I think I would like this book because it has animals which I love but it is sad that they gave the horse away.
ReplyDeleteThe blog is good but you seemed to write about what its about and that's it you should have written more in depth
ReplyDeleteSeems like a pretty interesting book, I have seen the movie, although I would imagine that the book would be 1000 times better (the movie was not that good in my opinion). Very nice blog post, I liked how you described what was currently happening in this novel. Good Work Stefan!
