Animal Farm

I just finished reading the novel Animal farm by George Orwell and I thought it was a fantastic book. In my opinion I thought it was very clever how the author compared the humans and the pigs. At the beginning, the animals were all in grief by how the humans were taking all of their resources for themselves, but towards the end of the book the pigs ended taking all of the resources from the animals and betraying them. I really enjoyed how it was very realistic and how the animals tried to rebel against the selfish rules of the pigs. I felt angry inside because of how unjust the pigs were by taking advantage of the knowledge that the other animals didn't have. Since I had some previous knowledge about the Revolutionary war it was very interesting to make the connections between the pigs and the humans in real life. I found that it was humors that the author compared dictators to pigs. Overall this novel was quite interesting and humorous by most of all it an important lesson.
