BLACK BEAUTY

by Anna Sewell page165-184

Jerry Barker, who was new owner of Black Beauty, was very good and kind to me. His sons always tried to work with him, and one of them whose name was Harry was a good stable worker. Jerry didn't like to loiter and wast time and was against driving hard for careless people to make up for their lateness because he didn't want to whip his horses for that people. But he agreed willingly with hurrying for a good reason. He seldom used the wip and always tried to communicate to his horses with his voice, click and the rein. That's why Black Beauty could trust him. He must be the man Black Beauty desired as his owner.

This story made me happy because Black Beauty could find his good owner. While his previous one didn't think about him, Jerry was kind to not only his horses but also his neighbor. In this story, someone said,"Good Luck mostly prefers those who have common sense and a good heart". I really agree with it.
