Freewrite/Insight: Animal Farm

I have been enjoying reading Animal Farm. The characters are strong and well developed. I like the fact that the author George Orwell gave the characters many human traits and gave these traits to animals that symbolize them. for instance the pigs are smart and the dogs are loyal. My favorite thing about this book is that the animals represent real people from The Russian Revolution.

The entire book is based on The Russian Revolution. Everything that happens in the book resembles what happened in the revolution and all of the characters are based on people that were involved with it. Animalism resembles Communism and in the book the pig Napolian becomes greedy and tries to gain more power just as Leon Trotsky did, during his rule, during the Russian Revolution. This book teaches The Revolution.
