Animal Farm--The Best thing about my book

Animal Farm is a very interesting book in the fact that instead of people, the government is made up of animals. One thing I found humerous about this system of animals is that out of all of them, the pigs are the rulers. This is making fun of the fact that the people in the government will do anything to get ahead, using the term,"They are a bunch of pigs." The author is using satire in this fact to ridicule that fact by turning the leaders into pigs. He is also making fun of rulers because the pigs get the most food and water and also get the most comfortable beds. When the farmer came back to try and take his farm back from the animals, the leading pig, snowball, yelled,"Charge," but he didn't even fight. He is ridiculing a monarchy in all of thesen facts because, in a democracy, the people are strong, and the animals other than pigs are strong. These animals include horses, dogs, sheep, and other stronger animals. What do you think, with all the other animals being strong, will they try to overthrow the pigs?

  1. I see this as a very humarous situation, but I do think that the stronger animals will rebel because they would have the numbers, having so many species, and the strenght to overthrow them so what is stoping them?
