What do you do when you don't have a home or a family to call your own anymore?
Eleven-year-old Abigail is not entirely sure how she'll find it, but after losing her mother to smallpox and her father to the sea, she knows that it is up to her to build a new life for herself and her little brother, Seth. But carving a future out of the harsh realities of life in Wiscasset, a nineteenth-century Maine seaport, proves difficult, and Abigail fears that there will always be more questions than answers. How long will they be able to stay and work for the young Widow Chase? Will Seth be able to let go of the past? As the months roll by like waves on the sea, Abigail searches tirelessly for a solution and for an answer to the question she holds most dear: Will they ever find a place to call home again?
DISCOVER AND CHERISH THIS BEAUTIFUL HARDBACK 40th ANNIVERSARY
ILLUSTRATED EDITION OF THE BELOVED MODERN CLASSIC, WAR HORSE.
Before the Steven Spielberg film, before the National Theatre
production, there was the classic and nation's favourite children's
novel... In the deadly chaos of the First World War, one horse
witnesses the reality of battle from both sides of the trenches.
Bombarded by artillery, with bullets knocking riders from his back,
Joey tells a powerful story of the truest friendships surviving in
terrible times. One horse has the seen the best and the worst of
humanity. The power of war and the beauty of peace. This is his
story. With a stunning new cover from fine arts photographer, Nine
Francois and chapter illustrations from award-winning war artist,
George Butler. National treasure, Michael Moropurgo's, War Horse
was adapted by Steven Spielberg as a major motion picture with
Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, and Benedict Cumberbatch. The National
Theatre production opened in 2007 and has enjoyed successful runs
in the West End and on Broadway.
