Animal Farm Essay
The name of the book is Animal Farm, which is written by George
Orwell. This book is about a farm with animals who dislike the treatment, and
overtake the farm and overthrow the humans of the farm. As the revolution

Napoleon, whose main goal was to have nothing to do with humans, and bring
communism into their society.
'Napoleon was a large, rather fierce-looking Berkshire boar, the only

For example, Napoleon comes up with the building of the windmill that
would supply electricity so they would not have to work as hard. Napoleon

sees that Snowball is gaining more power with the speech of the windmill,
Napoleon sends his dogs to chase Snowball out of the farm. After Snowball
was chased out of the farm,
