Animals in Literature

http://suite101.com/article/talking-animals-in-literature-a347210

This website was very interesting because it evaluated some reasons why people are fascinated with using animals in literature, more specifically talking animals. It explains how personification is a way humans connect with the animal kingdom and reveals a longing to have a closer relationship with the animals around us. It also touches on the use of animals in children's literature.
