In the case of Lord of the Flies, the structure is chronological (in order of time) , where events are revealed to the reader in the order in which they have happened.  The book is divided into 12 chapters, the titles of which summarise key events in the plot. 

Animal Farm follows a simple structure. It is written in 10 chapters that can be divided into three sections:

🔹the Dream

🔹the Rebellion

🔹Napoleon’s regime

Each chapter tells a story in its own right and has an 'ending', which makes the story easy to follow. It also allows the reader a chance to reflect about the lessons taught in each chapter.
