Black Beauty by Anna Sewell: Student Review by Beatrice

blackBlack beauty is a very interesting book. It is about a horse getting past on to cruel masters and nice masters.
A horses life can be filled with love and tenderness. It can also be filled with meanness and cruelty. Black Beauty learns both sides of life in this classic tale by Anna Sewell. Told from a horse’s point of veiw, Black Beauty’s own story takes you into the mind and heart of a sensitive animal serching for love and understanding. From happy times as a young foal romping with his mother, Duchess, to harsh years as a cab horse in the city and finally to a peaceful old age, Black Beauty’s life shows that horses have feelings too, and sometimes they even know things people don’t.
The reasen I like this book is I love horses and it’s a horses life how bad horses can be treated, but they will love you if you take good care of them. You can watch the movie too. If you watch the movie that is good too I like the movie better.
Black Beauty even saved his masters life from a brige, The minite Black Beauty steped on it he knew something was wrong.
Black Beauty’s color was black ( I think you could have guessed that because of his name. ) And he had a white star on his forehead.

The Runaway Race Horse by Ron Roy: Student Review by Parker

runaway race
I just read an awesome book called the “Runaway Race Horse” and it was about three kids named Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose. My favorite part is when they give the horse a bath because they find a mark on it and that is where the mystery begins. I like it and I think you will like it too. You will like it because it is an adventure story.
