Animal Farm

This book is a very good satire of the Russian Revolution. It explains it in a way that when “Children” see it, it is just a story, but when you fully understand it, it seems like a variation of the revolution through a farm of animals. In the revolution it shows a society where everyone is “equal” but Stalin was above everyone. This is also shown in Animal Farm when it shows certain animals rising to power. Animal Farm is a bit different to the Russian Revolution in the end, but it is pretty much the exact same, other than it is at a farm, and there are animals.

Animal farm is a bad book because it makes the reader really imagine the battles in horrific detail. When the battle of the cowshed Orwell used words and sentences to put how the animals and farmers battled each other. The book had used words like bike, peck, and sentences like the farm boy had had his stomach pushed in with the imprint of a hoof. This shows how Orwell needs to tone down his book and make it more nice and friendly.

i think it is a kids book

Animal farm is a wonderful way to explain the problems with evil people and communism. It uses a strong allegory to connect the animals in the book to real people in history it shows us how, though many of the animals start off with good intentions those in power inevitably fall into corruption especially Napoleon (who represents Stalin) and finds himself at the top of the food chain after getting rid of any animal who gets in his way. It really helps to display the relationships between education, power, and corruption. It also uses some vague language which makes you have to dig deep to find out what may be happening or have common knowledge of history. Having read his other equally famous novel 1984 it is easy to detect similar themes like manipulation, control and mindlessness. If you're somebody who enjoys deeper books, history, or simply silly books about animals rising to power over humans this is a great choice for you. Another reason to read this wonderful masterpiece is because it makes it easy to understand the basics of communism and dictatorship. One example of this is when Napoleon slowly changes the rules for his own good. All in all it was a great quick read. ALSO SQUEALER x NAPOLEON FOR LIFE

I read this book in my Humanities class and we all really enjoyed it. From the plot to the climax, the suspense, the drama, perfection. The way how Orwell managed to create an amazing book about a farm and talking animals is stunning. Orwell was able to keep me at the edge of my seat every time I read it, every moment was unforgettable. Every time something happened it was an unexpected turn of events. All and all, I recommend this book and promote it very highly.

It was a good book ,but I think in my own he ending was trash. I wish there was a new ending the the animals won,

Animal Farm is a great book! I quite enjoyed reading it, and as a lover of history and satire works, this book checks off all the boxes. This book is an allegory of the Russian revolution as many of the animals represent people in the revolution. Snowball is Trotsky, Napoleon represents Stalin, and Squealer represents propaganda. Many others also represent other factors and people in the revolution. I enjoyed watching the slow uprising of the revolution, and how the leaders eventually became corrupt dictators, and the power of language and words used on the other farm animals. The themes in this book still are relevant today, and have connections to things happening in modern history. 10/10 Would read again!

Animal Farm was a great book that I extremely enjoyed. One of the reasons that it was great was that it broke down a large history lesson into small and digestible parts. It also posed many good questions to expand upon. There are also many good lessons that can be taken from the story and they are easy to pick out because of the great characterization Orwell uses throughout the book. I found myself really invested in the story and wanting to see what unpredictable thing would happen next. I also loved how Orwell only described what happened but not what the characters actually were thinking, which gave me room to imagine the thought processes of my favorite animals. My favorite part about the book was how Orwell ended it. It was very satisfying because he managed to round out such great character arcs over the course of the story. These are just a few of the reasons that Animal Farm is one of the best books I have read.

Pretty much mindless propaganda

It Teaches views on the effect on how communism will slowly become a totalitarian regime if the leaders are left unchecked.
