Animal Farm Essay
...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 took place,
two leaders came about. Their names were Snowball and Napoleon, whose main

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, Napoleon gains more power by saying Snowball was a bad person. He
told the animals that Snowball was with Mr. Jones...
