Animal Farm Personally‚ I believe that the classic book‚ Animal Farm‚ is one that all should enjoy and prosper from. It is written by Eric Blair‚ or as he is better known‚ George Orwell.

Animal Farm is a fable that represents Stalinism in Russia. Also‚ it can be related to how many world leaders‚ and politicians get away with things that others don’t because of their position in the world.
