I didn't read Animal Farm in school but i did really enjoy it as an adult. Social commentary aside, i love the way Orwell tells a story. Even though you know the characters are doomed you can't help but root for them and have hope they'll be okay or even win in the end. Which of course makes the revelations all the more heartbreaking.
