About This Book

On a farm where animals work hard and dream of fairness, they rise up to create a new world where everyone is equal. But as power shifts, the promise of justice fades, and a new kind of rule takes hold, showing how even the best intentions can go wrong. This powerful tale uses talking animals to explore big ideas about freedom and control.
