George Orwell’s political fable
Animal Farm has been voted the nation’s favourite ever school book in research commissioned for World Book Day.
The study, conducted by Oxford Home Schooling, asked 2,000 UK adults which books they most enjoyed reading when at school.
Animal Farm was selected by 25% of respondents.
The novella was followed in the rankings by Charles Dickens’
A Christmas Carol (21%) and John Steinbeck’s
Of Mice and Men (19%).
Harper Lee’s
To Kill A Mockingbird is the most popular school book by a female author (18%), placing sixth on the overall list.
JB Priestley’s
An Inspector Calls is among the most popular school titles for younger Brits. Meanwhile a gender divide opens up over the Bronte sisters’ books – rated highly by women, but low down the rankings for men.
The majority of the most popular books are from the 1900s, but three 21st century works made the top 40. John Boyne’s Holocaust novel, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, published in 2006, was the highest rated work from this millennium. Animal Farm
is the favourite amongst men, but A Christmas Carol tops the list for women, followed by Charlotte Brontë’s gothic romance novel
Jane Eyre. Greg Smith, Head of Operations at Oxford Home Schooling, said: “The books we read at school can affect our general interest in reading in later life, so it’s really important that people enjoy the novels given to them.
