I like War Horse because there is a lot of action. Have you read War Horse? Well if you haven't you should definitely read it, it's amazing! it is a book and film. The book are film are slightly sad in places. When Joey gets sold to a man who works on a farm he finds his son Albert and they become best mates and then Albert teaches Joey how to work on the farm. Then unfortunately Joey gets sold to the war where his new best friend Captain Nicholls dies and he is needed to pull hospital carts. The Germans let Emile and her Grandpa look after him. Then they go with the Germans again to pull guns and Topthorn ( Joey's companion) dies. Joey gets stuck in barbed wire and hurts his leg and is sent back to Emile and her Grandfather but Emile has died! Then Emilie's Grandfather sells Joey back to Albert. I feel very deeply for Joey because of everything he has been through. I also feel for Albert because he loved Joey and one day he just got taken away. i think you should read this book because it is amazing. Personally I think the book is better than the film because the film is frightening in places. i would recommend this book to anyone over the age of 5. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I loved it - 5 stars!! *by D***G on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 January 2021* This was one of those books that I had been meaning to read for a while and as my 9-year-old niece is currently reading it I downloaded a copy last night and finished it this morning – and I loved every page.It was as brilliant and I thought and hoped it would be. I loved the way that Joey’s story was told and the way that the Great War is also discussed and you see it from his view.It is very well written and I would have stayed up to finish the book in one sitting had I not needed to get up for work the next day. It is a poignant and moving story and it really does show what some of these horses went through. I was lucky to read a book previously on animals in the Great War and they really do deserve a lot more acknowledgment and credit.Worth all the praise I have seen it given in the past by other readers. It is 5 stars from me for this one and another tick on my wish to read more classics this year - very highly recommended!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not just for children *by N***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 March 2018* Although this is intended as a children's book, it has plenty for the adult reader, offering more depth than many books written for adults for adults. The narrative style is sufficiently engaging that it has great potential for reading at a single sitting.Making Joey, the (war) horse, the narrator was a brilliant move on Michael Morpurgo's part, since it simultaneously encourages children to think about the effect of their actions on others (for who could not empathise with Joey?) and helps to show that neither humanity - nor not a lack of it - observes geographical or political borders.Children will learn a lot about the First World War and readers young and old will appreciate the various roles of the horse in warfare on both sides. An excellent read. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/66843506-war-horse-paperback-8-may-2012](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/66843506-war-horse-paperback-8-may-2012) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
