Summary: Don't be fooled by a boring movie version!
Comment: The book is absolutely excellent! I enjoy horse books and I'll read anything, but Walter Farley's Black stallion and the series holds a place in my heart. It's about a boy and his love for a untamed wild stallion. Amazingly, he is the only one whom is able to ride him! I give it 5 stars. Read it. You'll see.

Summary: wild, dramatic, tempestous, beautiful, epic masterpiece
Comment: I have read and reread this book more times than I remember ever since I got my first copy of the book what seems like ages ago. Yet even now as I read it again the spirit of the Black Stallion never fails to move me and draw me into its surging, wildly attractive story. There are few stories as appealing and compelling as the magical bond of love, trust, and understanding forged between a beautiful, untamable stallion and a young boy, and the great things that they accomplish together.
The Black and Alec have inspired and unfailingly won the hearts of millions of people throughout the generations and I have no doubt that they will continue to do so long after many of its original fans have left this world. Theirs is an epic story that instantly captures and draws the attention of even the most idle reader. Farley has created a timeless, classic masterpiece that should be read by everyone!

Summary: The Heart of a Horse
Comment: This book is spetacular!!! Its one of the greatest books I have read in years. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put the book down. It was about a young boy, named Alec, who finds himself and a black horse to be the only survivors of a shipwreck. Alec soon learns that he owe his life to this black horse whom saved his life, by dragging him to an island. They soon learn they must depend on each other in order to survive on the island, and because of Alec's love for horses, he learns how to become the horse's friend and he starts a type of speacial bond between the horse and himself.
One of my reasons why I liked this book is, because it always gives me that feeling of whats going to happen next. Its just that the book is so full of excitment. Every time Alec rides the black horse, the author makes it seem that Alec is always risking his life. Every once in a while the author, Walter Farley, would write an event where it seems Alec could loss his life. Such as this, "A few minutes later Henry and Jake ran up to them, and Alec weakly climbed down from the saddle. Henry took the reins- they were sticky and wet with blood."
Another reason why I liked this book is, it has just the right level of vocabulary. Sometimes when you choose a book and it turns out to be something a little too easy or a little too hard, that you can't understand what the book is really talking about. Such as this sentence, "The next day Alec set out to obtain more of the carragheen" or this sentence, "he remebered the deep gully that was there.
My most favorite part of this book was, when Alec and the black horse gets rescued from the island they were stranded on, and when Alec finally gets to see his family for the first time in many months. The reason why I like this part is, it's full of happiness. Alec had never seen his family in about five months, and he thought that he was going to die on that island with the horse.
