by Michael Morpurgo Published by Scholastic Press ISBN: 978-0545403351 192 pages I really enjoyed this book. The first-person narrative of a horse's experience of war was very touching. It reminded me of Black Beauty and other stories told from an animal's point of view. The story also had a lot to say about the impact of war and whether it is ever necessary. It is a great story with lots of adventure and lessons about friendship and bravery. |
