Don't most of the paperbacks have a summery on the back praising the allegory or multiple introductions explaining the works place in literary history? Too lazy to dig out my copy at 2am but I could have sworn the mass market paperbacks have things that spell out the theme long before the reader gets to the first line of prose.
This teacher sounds like this one that I had once who was so incompetent my dad actually came in and taught him how to teach, lol! (My dad is an engineering major, and this teacher was so bad at teaching math he almost confused him!)
... I don't want to live on this planet anymore
They probably also think that 2+2=5, too (Yes. That's an Orwell reference).
Because it's SO about animal abuse and not the Russian revolution

I'm reading that book too. That in itself is a FML
The book is a breeze. It's baby's first historical-political allegory, complete with talking animals. Should be an easy unit, if not a fun one, which it can be.
It's a good book. Grow up.

Well animal abuse certainly happens in communist embodiments...
