Een klassiek verhaal met prachtige illustraties biedt een betoverende kijk op het leven van een dappere paard in het Victoriaanse Engeland, dat generaties lezers heeft geboeid. Ga op reis door de tijd en ontdek de wereld door de ogen van Zwarte Schoonheid, die de vreugde en het lijden van paarden in de 19e eeuw ervaart. Het verhaal is even fris als in 1877, toen het voor het eerst aan lezers werd gepresenteerd. Maak kennis met medelevenwekkende helden en wrede schurken die Zwarte Schoonheid tegenkomt, en voel de emoties van een paard – galopperend over het zachte gras en het horen van liefdevolle woorden in moeilijke tijden. Dit verhaal zal je voor altijd bijblijven. Anna Sewell, de auteur, werd geboren in 1820 en werd na een ernstig ongeluk een levenslange liefhebber van paarden. Haar poging om de harten van mensen te raken en hun kijk op dierenwelzijn te veranderen, leidde tot het schrijven van dit werk. Zwarte Schoonheid is vandaag de dag het meest geliefde dierenverhaal, met naar schatting vijftig miljoen verkochte exemplaren wereldwijd.

The carpenter Gepetto has carved an extraordinary marionette called Pinocchio out of a special piece of wood. But what a scamp that Pinocchio turns out to be! He pulls off Gepetto's wig and races out the door in search of adventure. Pinocchio finds plenty, but he is so mischievous and so very disobedient that despite the advice of Cricket and the Blue Fairy, he always seems to land in trouble. Yet Pinocchio is also kindhearted and loving, traits that, if he can only learn to behave, may help him realize his dream of becoming a real boy. For over a hundred years, children have delighted in this tale, now in a handsome new edition for a new generation.
