![]() "We've got to go away before it's too late." Fiver could sense danger. Something terrible was going to happen to the warren - he felt sure of it. So did his brother Hazel, for Fiver's sixth sense was never wrong. They had to leave the warren, and they had to persuade the other rabbits to join them. And so a small band of rabbits began a long and perilous journey. |

Richard Adams was born in Berkshire in 1920 and studied history at Bradfield and Worcester College, Oxford. He served in the Second World War and in 1948 joined the Civil Service. In the mid-sixties he completed his first novel, Watership Down, the story of which he originally told to his children to while away a long car journey.

I've only read an extract of this book, and although some people find it hard to believe that the story of a few rabbits in danger could be exiting, I believe that this classic is worth a read. From what I've read, the age range that would enjoy this book most would be 10-14 yr olds. |
