Suzanne Gulbin is a first time teacher in Pennsylvania, and she had her students read Animal Farm and Lord of the Flies by William Golding. She had her students come up with information to add to a discussion about the two. In doing this research they found many similarities in the two books. Both deal with the government in some form; both have a transformation of pig to man, or man to pig; both have rebellions of some form; and both have situations of absolute irony. These are just some of the similarities the class came up with.
