Description	Farm Boy is a novel by Michael Morpurgo, best known as being the sequel to the popular novel War Horse. The book was first published in the United Kingdom in 1997 by Pavilion Books Limited and is illustrated by Michael Foreman. It was not initially planned for Morpurgo to write a sequel to War Horse, but the story was inspired after receiving many enquiries about what happens to Joey, a horse in service of the Army (the main character from War Horse) after the Great War. In an article in ChronicleLive Michael Morpurgo also stated that his favorite of his own works was Farm Boy. The book captures modern life on a farm in rural Devon, where Michael Morpurgo lives, while having retrospective flashbacks to the lives of Albert and Joey (characters from War Horse). He stated in the article in ChronicleLive:“I think Farm Horse because it’s about my home and because I know every lane, every hedge and every field in the book because it’s right outside my window. It’s very close to my heart and Michael Foreman’s illustrations are simply to die for. He really responded to it beautifully.”Farm Boy was republished in 1999 by Harper Collins Children's Books.
