The sequel to the phenomenon that is Michael Morpurgo's War Horse!
Farm Boy is set fifty years after War Horse. It is the story of how a grandfather (the son of Albert the hero of War Horse) and his grandson face the grandfather's deepest shame—something he's kept secret his whole life...  He never learned to read.
As the two study together the grandfather revisits the beloved characters from the first book recounting the story of when Albert raced Joey and Zoey against a modern tractor to see who could plow a field the fastest.Â
The book speaks to the bond between grandfather and grandson and captures the spirit of rural life and the love of horses.
