Difference between fruits and vegetables

While I was researching the difference between fruits and vegetables, I came across this good answer:

According to scientists fruits are mature ovaries of seed-bearing plants and vegetables are plants cultivated for their roots, leaves and other eatable parts. To simplify things, if an eatable part of plant contains seeds, that plant is considered fruit. Another thing that separates fruits and vegetables is carbohydrate called fructose that gives the fruits their sweet taste that vegetables don't have.

The Evil Pigs (Animal Farm)

Oink! Did you know that pigs are evil? Not in real life of course, but in this book, it turned out to be true.

Animal Farm by George Orwell is about a farm that is taken over by animals. The boar who starts the rebellion is Old Major. After Old Major's death, every animal elects two pigs to lead the farm. They are Snowball and Napoleon. Snowball and Napoleon write seven commandments to govern the farm and all the animals agree to follow these commandments.

The commandments I can remember are:

• All animals are equal


• No animal will sleep in beds


• Every living thing with four legs is a comrade, every living thing with two legs is an enemy


• No animal will drink whiskey

After a while Napoleon chases Snowball out. Napoleon becomes a dictator and the farm's order collapses.

I believe this is a very good book even though it made me sad. I would recommend this for ages eight and above.
