In 2002-2003 our class was required to read Animal Farm and write a summary for each chapter, and an event calender. We were also required to give examples and relate the animals to today. I felt that this book was very good. But I felt the author could have given a little more descriptions for the minor characters. I couldnt figure out why he placed several characters in the book but then barely talked about them. They were used for a chapter or two and then they seemed to disappear. I felt that this story taught me a lot about history that I never even knew about before. Since I wasnt here for most of sixth grade, where I came from was a year behind everyone else, for math and social studies. It was very difficult to get catched back up on history but I wouldnt have changed anything. This book will teach you a lot on Russian Communism, and how it effected us. It placed characters in the book that represented huge people back then, and placed them as the major characters in the book. Such as Major, Napoleon, Squealer, and Snowball. Well if I were you I suggest you read this book because it will teach you a lot about World History.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Michelle<br>
