The Black Stallion is the first book in a series about a wild black stallion and Alec. Alec and this stallion is stranded on an island after the boat to America sinks in a bad storm. Alec is fascinated by this spirited stallion and successfully befriends it. When they are rescued, Alec is allowed to keep the stallion, partly because the stallion is wild and only trusts Alec. With the help of Henry, a former jockey, Alec learns to cooperate with this fierce stallion in hopes of becoming the best horse racer in America. I recommend this book to younger teenagers because the books are short and easy to understand. I rate this book a 5 out of 5 because it is such a well written book and I have loved all 20 books in this series. Catherine P., grade 11, of the Yorba Linda Teen Book Bloggers
