Overview of The Black Stallion
The Black Stallion by Walter Farley tells the story of a unique and enduring bond between a boy and a horse. Alec and the black stallion (referred to as the Black throughout the book) find themselves in grave danger early on, yet their perseverance leads them to a deep friendship that helps them overcome the odds.
The Black’s mysterious past brings uncertainty to their journey, but one thing is certain: the bond between Alec and the horse is unlike any other. Together, they form an unlikely team that ventures into the thrilling world of horse racing, where Alec finds himself once again facing unexpected challenges.
This book explores themes of persistence, determination, and the unbreakable connection between a boy and his horse.

This is one of the best comprehensive book studies! I absolutely love the activities and ideas that come along with it. We will definitely be doing more of these and hope to join in on the Treehouse Schoolhouse Book Club!
My kiddo is so excited to start this book study! I am impressed with everything that is incorporated into this study - social studies, geography, history, science, math, art and of course language arts. I am looking forward to creating many wonderful memories while completing this study.
This is so thoughtfully written to engage our kiddos with the book in creative and fun ways. Thank you!
R., it’s not really fair that you trash all the work these people spent doing this guide because it offended you. Perhaps try and not take things personally and use what works for you and ignore what doesn’t. We can’t go about life feeling offended by history (no matter how awful) or other people’s views.
My kids and I are almost through this book/study and we have loved them SO much. The book is so rich and hilarious and provides so many opportunities for deep dives, and the book study was so thoughtfully created and truly brings the book to life. I’ve already bought two more studies since and I hope they keep coming!
