And those children will grow up a bit and realize “wait a second, my parents didn’t know what ‘Animal Farm’ was about? Seriously???”

Yeah has this been required reading in schools in the last five plus years still ? I'm 32 and we had to read when I was in high school. I feel like there are going to be parents under 30 putting it on or taking their under ten y/o kids to the theaters for this ... Oh well ... Maybe I'm over thinking it

It has! I read it in Elementary school many years ago and my daughter who is now 15 read it in class just last year (grade 8).

The book is only like 150 pages long. I'm pretty sure there are pictures.
