The black stallion is a good book.My favorite part is at the beginning of the chapter when Alec meets the black. That's my favorite part because they both help each other and they both become friends.

The black stallion was a good book. In the beginning of the book Alec the main charter was on a ship called the drake and got stranded on a island with a horse they get saved and go to new york and he trains the black. My favorite part is when the people who saved the Alec said theres no horse on the island and then alec called and the black came then they were emberesed. I recemend this book to a friend. BS
There was a ship wreck and a boy is stuck on a island with a horse and they made a bond then they rescue them. The horse is fast so they train him for a race against the fastest horses in the country. Then the race happens and the horse wins. I liked this book because it has lots of action. I would recommend this book because it has lots of action. I.H
ER......Alec Ramsey and the black stallion get shipwrecked on an island with little resorces to survive on. Once they get rescued they train to race the black. Finally, the black and Alec race two world champions.......
On his way from India to New York, Alec Ramsey gets swept off the Drake. He holds onto a horse that was on the boat and makes it to a deserted island. He is on the island for 16 days until he is rescued. When he gets to New York he opens a old box and it was a racing stuff and he put it on the Black and Alec wanted to put the Black on a race but the Black doesn't have racing papers. You should read the book to find out who wins.
the black is the favrot part for me because the black gets huart then he gets up and runs but the black will not fight back he just ran to the fiish line. sm
