Karen read this one too:
War Horse is a touching book that kept my interest all through. Although it is a children's book, I enjoyed it but must admit I got teary-eyed reading it. Parts were very sad but I loved the ending! Joey, the horse, tells his story about living on a farm with a boy named Albert and then being sold to the army because Albert's dad needed money to save his farm. The horse goes through a lot but Albert never gives up looking for him.
We went to see the movie the day after Christmas and it is as good as the book! It's really fantastic and we both cried, it was so moving. You see the horrors of war but yet also the sacrifice for others, love, determination and some funny scenes too! Great book, great movie! We highly recommend it. For more detail, see War Horse at Plugged in Online.
