Review: I am not a big fan of books but,when I read "Animal Farm" for school it was one of the best books i ever read(next to "hop on pop"). Animal Farm shows you, how the government was run in Russia with Stalin as a dictator. There are two movies on this book, but save the movies for last. I highly recamend this book to everyone, once you start reading, you will never stop. i know that when people read these reviews, that it is a lie. let me tell you one thing, if you read this book it will for sure be in your top ten favorite books.

Summary: A fascinating little political fable
Review: Some have said George Orwell's strength lies in his stories and ideas, not his writing. Granted, he's no genius with words and style, but I like his smooth and succinct way of writing. This in addition with the relative shortness of Animal Farm makes it a fairly quick read. You get a great satirical look at the beautiful idea that was transformed into a perversion of itself in Russia/the USSR in the beginning of the 20th century. It's even cute at first, so cute you might even consider reading it to your kids. Although the smallest might find the rest a little too scary, this might serve as a serious thoughtprovoker if combined with intelligent parents. Just don't do it without reading it yourself first. It helps if you know something about the Russian revolution and the situation there. Actually the similarities began bothering me at one time, but I think the book gives a great viewing point to the USSR and what it COULD have been about. But remember: don't leave your brains in the wrong pair of pants while reading the book.

Summary: A Must-Read
Review: This is a must read book. It has quite a bit of satire in it, and many, many, hidden meanings. It is a fairly short read, and well worth it. The story begins of The Manor Farm. The animals are fed up with working with the humans, so, they start a revolution. I won't give away the story so that you can enjoy it also.

Summary: The only animal is George Orwell!
Review: Of all the things I have ever read! What a terrible and unrealistic story. I mean, how can animals talk? I have a parrot that talks but not in complete sentences. And besides the pigs run the show in this and if it really happened the cats would run things because everyone knows that cats are born leaders. Anyway, I wouldn't reccomend this book to my worst enemy. I read this book to my nephew, Simon and he started crying and now he is afraid of pigs and horses because he says that they will rise up and establish a totalitarianist state and will rule over us. Ughhhh! It gives me a head ache.

Summary: It was Great!
Review: Animal Farm, by David Orwell, is a spectacular book about a farm that is taken over by the animals that live there. The book tells how they work and manage on the farm It also tells the hardships they face. My favorite part was at the begining when they had to fight the humans off the farm.I also liked the other time they had to battle with the humans.I would have to say that my favorite charicter was Boxer the horse, I could really relate with him. I thought his charicter got better towards the end also. I would have to recommend this book to anyone. I think it would hold the interest of a variety of ages. It was excellent. You need to go pick this one up and read it.

Summary: amazing book
Review: this book is absolutely great i loved it. the book is a satire explaining the russian revolution, but if you don't know anything about the revolution still read it because you could like it just as a animal book without any satire at all. i saw it as satire as must people do, but it is a great book anyway.

Summary: Animal Farm
Review: I have recently read the book "Animal Farm" by George Orwell. This book is modeled after the Russian Revolution. It shows in a more humorous way using animals on a farm what happened during this time period. The story begins on Manor Farm which is run by a human. The animals on the farm were fed up with having to listen to a human and do his work. After a speech given by Old Major the oldest pig on the farm the animals build up the courge to revolt. The revolution is successful and they ran the human out. Once this occured the animals were free. This was untill the pigs took control. The pigs whose leader was Napolean (Stalin) and his friend Snowball (Trotsky) make up a set of rules to fallow. In the begining these rules were the ideal rules for a perfect nation evryone was equal. These rules were written on a wall for all animals to read and obey. This is all well and good until the pigs start to stretch the rules and even start to erase them from the wall. There perfect society goes down hill from thier. Read the book to find out what happens. I recomend this book to everyone. It is a short read and it is really fun. It teaches you many things and keeps your attention. Once I picked it up i couldn't set it down.

Summary: Marvellous
Review: What a guy, Orwell wins the prize for the most depressing writer in living history. I love this book, just as I do "1984". If you feel down and want to know if you can sink any lower, then buy this and "1984" and spend an afternoon realising that your troubles are nothing.

Summary: Too much power to one
Review: I just read the Animal Farm for a novel project. I think it is a very exciting book. After you have read if there are many higher ideas you can get from this book. It is easy to read and gives you a lot of information. I think that it really shows what can happen if to much power gets into one persons hands. It is also a really good example of the Russian Revolution. I think that using the animals is a great personification to the real life event of the Russian Revolution. Overall I think that this is a great book, easy to read, and is not a waste of your time.
