Summary: You won't want to put it down! A true masterpeice!
Review: This story isn't just about some bunnies going on a journey to a better home. It is a touching story about some rabbits to go out to find a new home without knowing the tradegy and horror to surpass them throughout the journey. With characters like Fiver, Blackberry, Hazel, & Bigwig altogether with the writing, the pictures, the descriptive language used in this book all make it a true masterpeice of the bookshelf.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: since the minute i picked it up, i couldn't put it down!
Review: i have read this book at least seven times, and all seven times, i absolutely loved it. if there was a poll to ask which book was my favorite, i would definately say this book. i am amused, and awed that richard adams could come up with such witty and entertaining dialouge between rabbits. his imagination must be much bigger than many peoples. and he makes up words for their language, completely out of the blue. i highly suggest this book to any one in particualar, or to those who enjoy brian jacques's series of redwall. email me at negat@home.com

Summary: Extraordinary! This book is simply amazing!
Review: This is one of the best books I have ever read! My teacher suggested it to me in sixth grade, but I didn't pick it up until this year, eighth grade, for a book report. As soon as I started, I couldn't put it down! It was wonderfully written! I fell in love with every character and each one's bravery. I'm sorry I didn't read it sooner!

Summary: The Best Book Since THE HOBBIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I don't understand how some of you people can say this book is boring. It may be at the beggining but most books are. And about childish characters, how manly are the pigs and sheep in Orsen Wells's ANIMAL FARM. This is one of those books that makes you think. They aren't talking bunnies, they're animals that speak in their own language among themselves. They also have distinctly human traits: compassion, honor, loyalty. These animals work together to make life better for themselves. If you want a book that will make you think, laugh, and cry this is the one. I read it twice in a months time and I am still not bored with it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: IT IS WORTH READING THE 400+ PAGES
Review: This book is funny and sad at times. When Interesting things happen Fiver, Hazel, and the rest make me laugh at how smart they really are This is a story every one should read not just because I said so but of their own accord.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Truly a great work of 20th century literature.
Review: I think it goes without saying that, despite the fact that we're dealing with "bunnies," we're dealing with people -- maybe not human, but certainly with feelings, passions, hopes, and drives just as much as your next-door neighbor. _Watership Down_ creates an entirely believable universe, in which our protagonists must find their way across great distances, overcome hardships, and come face-to-face with a totalitarian society diametrically opposed to their own ideals. It is the telling of the story, the interplay of the characters and situations, that make this as great a novel as it is. Indeed, if you have not read it, click the button, now: you won't regret it. To quote from Stephen King's _The Stand_, "The thing turned out to be about rabbits, for Christ's sake. The stupidest, most cowardly animals on God's earth...except the guy who wrote that book made them seem different. You really cared about them. It was a pretty damn good story, and Stu, who read at a snail's pace, finished it that same weekend." Yes, it's that good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is one of the best ones I have ever read!
Review: Watership Down was on my summer reading list for school last year. I picked it because the description made it sound interesting. However, it did not mention anything about rabbits, so I was surprised to find that the whole story was about talking rabbits! I "got into it" after a few pages, where in some books it takes a few chapters! I didn't want to put it down! I liked how each of the rabbits developed their own personality throughout the story. I especially liked the suspenseful, fast-paced ending. If you are looking for a great book, read Watership Down by Richard Adams!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It's a bunnies world afterall
Review: The odd thing is I didn't find this book so extraordinary that it deserves 5 full stars (so many people over rate books) nor was it so horrendous to get 1 star (so many people don't know how to READ). Watership Down is a middling book, nothing worth dwelling on when the book ends. It faded from my thoughts quickly.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It was so great I wanted my Dad to read it again and again.
Review: I love this book because it is really exciting! It is so great I want to read it again and again and again. I thought Bigwig was really funny. I loved Hazel. He is funny and smart and clever. Who would have thought to chase the Efrafans off with a dog? I like Fiver. He is weird.
