Beauty's Readin Log

This blog is my summer reading journal for my pre-AP English class. They require a chapter by chapter journal. This year's book is Black Beauty by Anna Sewell. My teachers provided a list of reader response lead-ins that we must use to start the topic of that journal entry for that chapter. I hope that you enjoy my logs and maybe you will read Black Beauty too! Check out Hoppin Readin Review for other reviews

An Old War Horse (Ch34 / Q16)

Some words, images, phrases, images, or details that stuck to me in this chapter are, the whizzing of bullets, the cries of the wounded soldiers, and the many dead and dieing horses. In this chapter we learn about Jerry’s other horse’s past. His name was Captain and hade been first trained as a war-horse. He had many times had to charge right into the on coming bullets and had seen many young horses and soldiers killed or heavily wounded. Captain went through many masters with at least two different masters and had only been wounded, and then not badly, once. But now he is away from all the fighting and is living a quiet life as one of Jerry’s cab horses.
