Animal Farm

In english class we just got done reading an amazing book called Animal Farm" It was about animals who decide to revolt against the farmer Mr. Jones. This book was amazing and I loved it. It is suppose to be based on something that happened in real life history. The russian revolution. Each animal is supposed to represent a historical figure in the russian revolution. For example, Old Major is suppose to be Karl Marx an Vladimir Lennin. Napolean is suppose to be Stalin. This book is a very interesting book and really shows the relation between animals and human beings. I would recommend this book to high school students or middle school students because even though it has a childish title, it is most definitely not a children's book. You should try to make time and read this book.

Unfair and in control!

Have you ever been treated unfairly when you are the one doing all the work? How about doing no work at all and still getting the wrong treatment? Lots of people, and even animals have had just that happen to them and are still being treated wrongly to this day. There is a quite interesting book called Animal Farm that I am reading in my English class, that's about unfairness towards animals. The animals are finally done putting up with it and decide to revolt. I've had some experiences in my life to know exactly how those animals feel. For example, I'm the oldest of my siblings, and sometimes I feel like I'm being mistreated, and I feel like it's unfair. When I want to go somewhere for the weekend, my mom sometimes says no but then lets my brother go wherever. Another reason, being treated differently by my old teachers. I turned in my work, I spent most of my time being a good student, but I felt like they would still never treat me the same. In the book Animal Farm, we've only gotten to chapter two, but a lot of stuff actually happens in those brief chapters. The animals have had enough mistreatment and have a meeting on how their lives are at the farm, and if they continue to let the farmer control them, how their lives will still be. If you continue to let people control you in a unfair, mistreated, and misjudged way, then you may have a miserable life ahead of you. Nobody wants to have a life that is being controlled by someone else besides yourself. So I encourage you to stand up and say no to unfair control!
