War Horse: A Book Review

It's a just a short one, both my review and the book! I was able to read it at work a chapter or two in between each patient, and luckily for my crew mate who wanted to read it but doesn't have time due to revision she got a synopsis at the end of each chapter.

A very heartwarming story, narrated by a horse named Joey who is sent to war. Encompasses the issues with war and soldiers on the frontline and within their camps. Poor Joey has a succession of owners and riders, some far better and more loving than others, looses his best friends in battle (both horse and rider), and comes through the other side with a miraculous recovery for tetanus. It definitely tugs on the heart strings in places and is written to be full of emotion! Turns out to be a happy ever after story that leaves you with a smile on your face. Really looking forward to the stage production and film!
