About this listen

Russell Tovey reads the story of the handsome and spirited horse, Black Beauty."'I hope you will grow up gentle and good, and never learn bad ways; do your work with a good will, lift your feet up well when you trot, and never bite or kick..." So says Black Beauty's mother when he is a very young colt, and he never forgets her advice.

This is the story of the horse's adventures and the disappointments and joys that surround him, from his carefree early days on an English farm with his mother, to his difficult life pulling cabs in London and finally his happy retirement in the country. Along the way, Beauty meets with many hardships and cruelty, but also with kindness and friendship. This is part of AudioGO's 'Famous Fiction' range.

A most enjoyable story about the life of a beautiful black horse and his good and bad times. This tale will be enjoyed by young and old. Good narration by RussellTovey.

Lovely story.

Black Beauty is such a wonderful story, there is nothing to be gained by abridging it. Key scenes are omitted. On top of that, the narrator chosen just doesn't suit the character to my ears. I couldn't finish it.

Poor narration

Disappointed that this is the abridged version. It did say in the description but it is easy to miss.
