Maybe you could post some of your own ideas first. Doing so could give the people here something to react to and, hopefully, spark a mutually beneficial discussion.

Look up Old Macdonald and you'll find out all ....
about a farm. Ei, Ei, Oh!
Read Animal Farm and research the Russian Revolution. No one here is going to write it for you. Also be sure to capitalize your sentences in the paper. Good luck, kiddo.

I'll give you a clue, it' all over the book.
Think. What was the slogan of the communists?
One has to laugh before being happy, because otherwise one risks to die before having laughed.

This novel is parabolic. I have read it a long time ago and I enjoyed it so much, not first as an allegory the way I read Gulliver' Travels. There are indeed undertones of politics but if you read it without allusions or analogies purely to enjoy the story you will enjoy. He was a great writer and perfectly of imagination and it cannot be simply a cheap political metaphor; there is something more than that and that is why today it survived the test of time and today we read it with an awestruck mind. It is fabulous and matchless.
When I read it as a child I had no preoccupation and purely I was obsessed with its story and now I have read lots of comments about it and now with a little colored mind I cannot enjoy in the degree I did in those formative days.
I have read so many such books out of storyline and there is so much joy in reading with that mindset, with so much innocence and gullibility.
