Phil Page is the co-author of the successful Shakespeare Graphics and Livewire Graphics series for Hodder Murray. George Orwell (1903-1950) was born in Bihar, India and was a novelist, journalist, essayist and critic, whose imaginative and insightful works have found their place in the literary hall of fame. He is renowned for writing some of the best political satires and dystopian fiction of the 20th century and books like Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) are modern classics read and re-read by adults and children alike. His narrative non fiction includes nearly 500 essays, book reviews and journalistic pieces, as well as book-length works like Homage to Catalonia (1938), Road to Wigan Pier (1937) and Down and Out in Paris and London (1933). Orwell features among the 50 greatest modern British writers.

'All animals are equal - but some are more equal than others'When the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master Mr Jones and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. But gradually a cunning, ruthless lite among them, masterminded by the pigs Napoleon and Snowball, starts to take control. Soon the other animals discover that they are not all as equal as they thought, and find themselves hopelessly ensnared as one form of tyranny is replaced with another.
