Is it possible that a horse can think, analyse the situation and come to conclusions like a human? It is possible! Anna Sewell states that in her famous novel “Black Beauty: The Autobiography of a Horse” where the story is told on behalf of an English noble blood stallion. This touching and rather sentimental story teaches us to understand horses better, to treat nature and animals more carefully and to think about simple but very important values of life. That’s what Anna Sewell wrote briefly about her novel “Black Beauty: The Autobiography of a Horse” loved by millions of readers: “I made up a small story to wake in people up love and sympathy for animals”.
