I read chapter 3 of Animal Farm by George Orwell. In this chapter the animals spend a laborious summer harvesting in the fields. The pigs think of ways for the animals to use the humans' tools, and every animal participates in the work. Every Sunday, the animals hold a flag-raising ceremony. The flag's green background represents the fields of England, and its white hoof and horn symbolize the animals. The morning rituals also include a democratic meeting, at which the animals debate and establish new policies for the collective good. At the meetings, Snowball and Napoleon always voice the loudest opinions, though their views always clash. This is a summary of what happened in the third chapter.
