War Horse by Michael Morpurgo is set in Europe during World War 2. It was a touching story about Joey, a red bay horse. He serves as the narrator. The story starts with Joey being purchased by an often drunk, ill tempered farmer. This farmer had a son named Albert who took an immediate liking to Joey. He trained Joey to be a farm horse and the two were inseparable until Albert's father sold Joey to the Army.
Joey continued to touch many lives throughout the war but his main focus was how he would return to Albert some day. Would they be reuinted some day? Read this great story to find out.
