About the Author
Anna Sewell (1820–1878) was an English novelist, best known for writing the classic Black Beauty. Born in Norfolk, England, Sewell led a difficult life, suffering from a serious injury in her youth that left her largely disabled.

Black Beauty, published in 1877, is her only novel and has become one of the most beloved works in children's literature. The story, narrated by a horse, addresses the mistreatment of animals and advocates for humane treatment. Sewell's novel was groundbreaking in its compassionate portrayal of animal welfare and contributed significantly to the movement for better treatment of horses in the 19th century.
