About this product

Product Information

When the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master Mr Jones and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. But gradually a cunning, ruthless elite among them, masterminded by the pigs Napoleon and Snowball, starts to take control. Soon the other animals discover that they are not all as equal as they thought, and find themselves hopelessly ensnared as one form of tyranny is replaced with another. Orwell's chilling 'fairy story' is a timeless and devastating satire of idealism betrayed by power and corruption.

Issue 1, arrived late Issue 2. Different book cover to what was listed Issue 3. Was listed to be in “very good condition” but wasnt. It was visibly old. The covers were wrinkled and dirty. The book was ripped by the spine with done pages folding in.

    Great edition of Animal Farm from Penguin Books

    With several editions to select from, this one resulted as a great choice. The size is small enough to carry around without problem, yet presents a good font size to read without sight strain. Although is paperback, this edition is very sturdy and of great quality. I fully recommend this edition to anyone looking for a affordable yet high quality book.

  • A COMPELLING READ!

    This tale was originally written by Orwell for children. He uses the analogy of farm animals to explain the ugliness of power and how it can lead to oppression and corruption. Every child should be made to read this book.
