This audiobook is about the life of a beautiful horse as a colt, adult, and retired animal and addresses issues horses had to deal with in regards to being used to pull carriages for money making and about the fair and kind treatment of animals used by people.

Black Beauty is born with a fine coat, a white foot, and a silver star on his forehead. As a foal he spends the days with his mother in an idyllic paradise until a vicious groom injures him, and his beloved owners have no choice but to sell him. As he passes from owner to owner he faces cruelty and hardship, as well as compassion and kindness. Through it all–all his struggles to survive–Black Beauty refuses to let his spirit be broken. Will he ever find the happiness and peace he craves?

"Da jeg blev fire år gammel, kom godsejer Gordon for at se på mig. Han undersøgte mine øjne og mine tænder og følte hele vejen ned på mine ben. Derefter måtte jeg gå, trave og galopere foran ham. Han så ud til at kunne lide mig og sagde: "Når den er blevet trænet, vil den klare sig fint." Min ejer sagde, han selv ville ride mig til, da han ikke ønskede, jeg skulle blive skræmt eller komme til skade. Og han spildte ingen tid. Næste dag begyndte han." I Anna Sewells klassiker fortæller hesten Sorteper om sit liv i England i 1820’erne.

"Da der var gået nogen tid, forekom det mig, at havren blev meget sparsom. Jeg fik bønner blandet med klid i stedet for havre. Efter to eller tre uger begyndte dette at tage på mine kræfter og på mit humør. Græsfoderet var, selv om det var godt, ikke nok til at opretholde min foderstand uden korn. Jeg klagede imidlertid ikke eller lod mig mærke med mine savn." I Anna Sewells klassiker fortæller hesten Sorteper om sit liv i England i 1820’erne.
