GIVEAWAY: War Horse by Michael Morpurgo

War Horse is a powerful book based on a true story, written by the brilliant Michael Morpurgo. He has touched hearts of many people with his books and is about to touch a few more with War Horse becoming a staged production.

I have been offered to read and review War Horse, which I can't wait to get started on. I have read a few other of the author's books and most of them left me in tears! Anyway, I also have a copy to giveaway on my blog thanks to Equi Media! =)

Here is a synopsis:
[taken from Goodreads]
Joey is a warhorse, but he wasn't always. Once, he was a farm horse and a gentle boy named Albert was his master. Then World War I came storming through and everything changed. Albert's father sells Joey to the army where the beautiful, red-bay horse is trained to charge the enemy, drag heavy artillery, and carry wounded soldiers not much older than Albert off of battlefields. Amongst the clamoring of guns and slogging through the cold mud, Joey wonders if the war will ever end. And if it does, will he ever find Albert again?
