- Latest Review: Puffy and the Formidable Foe by Marie Lepkowski and Ann Marie Hannon
The character of Snowball acted as a representation of Trotsky, who in real life was either ran out of the country by Stalin or straight up killed. If you watch the live action version it seems as if Snowball was ran off the farm, but in the older cartoon version you can hear the dogs attacking in the bushes. So he could have been killed, but we will never really know. It's up to interpretation.Marc Dizzy52 wrote:This book was really powerful and really depict a human race.the fact that Napoleon could do such things to feel human.i still wonder what happened to snowball ,he wasn't killed..but this book certainly shows that power and not knowing your identity can get to your head certainly .but I enjoyed this book certainly .my teachers basically pounded this book into us.

This is absolutely why I teach it and still, as an English teacher, use a lot of historical/political documents--to teach my students to think past the propoganda and really see what is happening.scriptbunny wrote:Cute parable for kids warning against the rise of populist-supported dictatorial regimes.

There is a live action and a cartoon and neither end happily, except perhaps for the pigs.Redcraze wrote:It's not just a good book, it's a great book. I'm interested in your comments about a movie version. I've never seen it but I remember hearing somewhere that it has a happy ending. Is that true? If so, it is a complete betrayal of the book.

The issue of exile is shown to be the only way of survival. Self restrained is seen to be the best guarantee so as not to get (self) exterminated. So much to be contained just in one book with lov[*]e and deception juxtaposed with politics.
