Animal Farm - Animal Farm was first published in England on 17 August 1945. It talks about the story of some animals living in a farm trying to stand up against the human farmer, with the hope of creating an equal, happy and unbound society for themselves. Filled with enthusiasm and motivated to rule over themselves, they create an utopia of equality, freedom and justice. The book is a satirical allegorical novella by George Orwell, a must-read for young readers. Orwell was born on 25 June 1903 in Eastern India, he was the son of a Bristish colonial civil servant. Educated in England, left Eton and joined the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, then a Bristish colony. He resigned from his job in 1927 and choose writting as his profession. 'Animal Farm' is one of his most widely known book of 20th century, a fable published in 1945 based on the events of Russia's Bolshevik revolution. The book gave Orwell a stable financial status.

The Canterville Ghost - The Canterville Ghost is set in the English countryside in the late 19th century. Most of the story takes place in Canterville Chase, which is described as an old mansion with secret rooms and passageways, long corridors, stained glass windows, and oak paneling. Pictures of long-dead Canterville ancestors, ancient tapestries, and a suit of armor add to the medieval-like setting. Overall, it seems to fit the stereotype of a haunted house.
The book follows fairy tale conventions, and Wilde introduces Virginia Otis, a fairy tale type heroine. Otis must believe that there is a soul worth saving in the murderous and grisly Sir Simon. Her actions, however, lead to a happy ending. Otis marries a duke and receives a casket of valuable jewels from the ghost.
