An epic story of friendship where sadness and hope walk hand in hand from master author Michael Morpurgo…
Morpurgo takes its readers on a hope-filled journey by telling the extraordinary events of World War I from the mouth of a horse named Joey.

Joey, who was not even six months old and was taken from his mother and put up for auction at the animal market, is introduced to the cruel truth of life and sold to a drunkard. The man’s son Albert, who intends to buy a calf, is fascinated by Joey the moment he sees her. Growing up together as the seasons follow each other, Albert and Joey form an unforgettable bond of friendship. Until one day, Albert's father, who needs money to pay off his mortgage to the bank, sells Joey to the British army for 40 pounds. This is the beginning of a new era for Joey and Albert. Nothing will be the same again. Joey, who turns from a farm horse into a cavalry horse, amazes everyone by running from front to front with Topthorn, whom he has just met and will be his companion for many years. What happens to him on the fronts of the allied and enemy forces throughout the years of war?.. He is even captured. Despite everything, Joey never loses hope that one day he will be reunited with his best friend Albert. Albert is also burning with this dream. One day, with a twist of fate, Albert and Joey's paths cross again. What kind of a dead end awaits them after this unexpected meeting? What is the will that Emilie, who looked after Joey lovingly for a year, gave to her grandfather before she died? Will this will cause Joey and Albert to break up again?..
