Question 5

To me this story has different moods throughout the whole book. While reading this novel I experienced joy, grief, spite and unfairness. For me it was kind of hard to choose only one mood for this novel. I think the mood that mostly describes this book is injustice. It felt so because Napoleon wasn’t being fair to animals on the farm and all animals knew that it was not right but they still followed whatever he said. Some events in this story kind of sadden me, but mostly they just make me mad. The first event that saddens me is when Napoleon takes over the farm, because Snowball was a great leader not like Napoleon that made everyone work for him and only him. Also Napoleon makes his own rules that only he could follow and no one else can. Second event that made me feel sadness is when Napoleon sells Boxer to a knackers, just to get money from it. Even though animals knew that Napoleon did such a thing they still didn’t complain or do anything just to get Boxer back on the farm. There is one more event that saddens me; it’s when Napoleon and Squealer become like human beings. They start to wear clothes, sleep in beds, drink alcohol, walk on their hind legs and use people’s money and communicate with people. Also the events that make me fell a little bit sad is when Napoleon changes seven commandments into his own rules, and animals still follow these rules, even though they know that its like how people do things.
