It was a phenomenal book. Some might say it's a children's book - and I've heard George Orwell even said so himself - but it's simply stunning and very moving. The way everything develops and unfolds is just magnificent, and the conclusion of the story itself was outrageous and amazing. I highly, highly recommend this book to literally anyone and everyone, no matter the age. It's a very easy and quick read (I finished it in a day), which portrays a greater picture and has a greater story/moral outlining it; which some may find difficult to grasp at first. Especially if you're still too young to understand. But, my god, was it a fantastic read! And even if you don't get the greater picture at first, it's still a cute and fun, yet also sad story. Highly recommended.
