Penguin Modern Classics- Animal Farm

Wondersaurus says:

We love how "Animal Farm" cleverly uses a farm and animals to explore complex ideas of power and freedom, making profound concepts accessible.

Description:

In "Animal Farm," the once oppressed animals of Manor Farm kick out their human owner and start running the farm themselves, dreaming of a life where everyone is free and equal. But soon, a sneaky and powerful group of pigs, led by Napoleon and Snowball, begin to take over, showing that some animals get to have more power than others. This story, written by George Orwell, takes a sharp look at how good intentions can turn into unfair rules and shows how a revolution can go off track, turning into a different kind of unfair rule. Though it's set on a farm, this tale is much more than just about animals; it's a timeless reflection on power, control, and how easy it is to lose sight of what's fair. This book is not only enjoyable to read but also teaches important lessons about history, politics, and the dangers of a too-powerful government.
