Watership Down
(14 reviews with an average rating of 4 out of 5)
Publisher: Penguin
Young rabbit Fiver is convinced that a great evil is about to befall the warren where he lives - but no one will listen to him. At last he manages to persuade his brother Hazel and a few other brave rabbits to leave behind the safety of the warren, before its too late. Chased by former friends, under threat from humans and hunted by dogs and foxes, their journey is a dangerous one - but the rabbits can still dream of a peaceful and safe new life at Watership Down.
In spite of its rabbit characters, there is nothing fluffy or gentle about this gripping tale of perilous adventure which won both the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize and the Carnegie Medal. Beautifully evoking the Berkshire countryside in poetic language, it is an exciting, moving and powerful novel.

amazing book understood fluently would reccomend for 10 years and over childern allthough they might have difficulty understanding some words, it is a very old story too and shows us how some people believe as how rabbit became the most popular prey.

I love this book! It is my favourite novel of all time and I will return to read it again and again! It made me laugh and cry and I loved everything about it- the storyline, the characters, the setting, the ending, and the beginning.

I rated this book four stars because it is VERY interesting to read. I knew this was a good book for me because, well I love rabbites and water streams. That is why I rated Watership Down a four. I would of gave it a five if I could understand it a bit better!
