Autor

Anna Sewell was born on March 30, 1820, in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, to a devout Quaker family. Her early education was at home, and after an injury at age 14, she became reliant on horse-drawn carriages, sparking her lifelong love for horses. This passion would shape her literary career.Her only novel, Black Beauty, was written between 1871 and 1877, during a period of declining health. Though originally intended to promote better treatment of horses, the novel became a children's classic, influencing animal welfare practices worldwide.Sewell passed away in 1878, just five months after Black Beauty was published. Despite her short life, her book made a lasting impact, leading to reforms in how horses were treated and becoming a staple of English literature.
