An unforgettable tale of war, redemption, and a hero's journey.

It is 1914, and Joey, a farm horse, is sold to the army and thrust into the midst of World War I on the Western Front. When Joey is dragged away, his heart aches for Albert, the farmer's son he is forced to leave behind.In the army the beautiful red-bay horse is trained to charge the enemy, drag heavy artillery, and carry wounded soldiers not much older than Albert off the battlefields. Amongst the clamoring of guns, and while plodding through the cold mud, Joey wonders if the war will ever end. And if it does, will he ever find Albert again?War Horse joins the Scholastic Gold line, which features award-winning and beloved novels. Includes exclusive bonus content

一個難忘的戰爭、救贖與英雄之旅的故事。

故事發生在1914年，農場馬喬伊（Joey）被賣給軍隊，捲入第一次世界大戰的西部戰線。當喬伊被拖走時，他的心中充滿了對農夫之子阿爾伯特（Albert）的思念，因為他被迫留下了阿爾伯特。在軍隊中，這匹美麗的紅棕馬被訓練用來衝鋒敵陣、拖拉重型火砲，並將年紀不比阿爾伯特大的傷兵從戰場上抬走。在槍聲轟鳴之中，喬伊在寒冷的泥濘中跋涉，心中不禁思索這場戰爭是否會有結束的一天。如果結束了，他是否還能再見到阿爾伯特？戰馬加入了Scholastic Gold系列，該系列包含獲獎和深受喜愛的小說。包括獨家附加內容
