One of our hand-picked classics that no home should be without, Animal Farm is the classic story of revolution - now with fabulous illustrations by Chris Mould.
George Orwell (1903-1950) is one of the world's most influential
writers, the visionary author of Animal Farm and Nineteen
Eighty-four as well as non-fiction classics. By the time of his
death in 1950 (and since), he was world-renowned as a journalist
and author.
Chris Mould has illustrated the gamut from picture books and young
fiction, to theatre posters and satirical cartoon. As well as
writing his own fiction and illustrating Ted Hughes' The Iron Man
to much critical success, he has teamed up with author Matt Haig
for the bestselling A Boy Called Christmas, A Girl Who Saved
Christmas, Father Christmas and Me and The Truth Pixie. He lives in
Yorkshire with his wife, has two grown-up daughters, and when he's
not drawing and writing, you'll find him . . . actually, he's never
not drawing or writing.
'A narrative as individual as it is apt in political parody.' -
Kirkus Reviews
'A stunning new illustrated edition of a classic tale. Mould . . .
is equal to the big themes the story presents, creating
unforgettable images for this unforgettable fable. This is a book
that will appeal to readers of all ages, and every child should
know this story.' - LoveReading4Kids on The Iron Man
