Summary: HAVING TROUBLE GETTING THROUGH THE BOOK? LOOK HERE
Review: I was assigned this book for school reading. When I first started reading it, I hated it. I thought it was slow and too detailed. But when I got to the chapter "Stranger in the Field", my opinion changed entirely. That chapter hooked me and it made me realize the book might be better than expected. You might come to a few dull parts, but don't worry, it will all change. Later in the book there are many exciting adventures, and you realize the detail is interesting, especially because you learn how the rabbits live in a suttle manner, it does not get thrown at you. I hope this helped those who are distressed.

Summary: Reading this book to my 10-year-old son has been wonderful!
Review: I do not think my 10-year-old son and I have enjoyed any book together so much since I read all of C.S. Lewis's 7 Chronicles of Narnia books to him when he was 6 years old. I think the Narnia books can never be beaten - but Watership Down is the first book we've shared since then that has come even close to Narnia adventures. One of your reviews notes that some TV-video-game generation kids may not relate to such books - NOT TRUE! My son loves his Nickelodeon and other TV shows, as well as all his video games and his various athletic and other activities. However, I know that any "spirited" and active kid who is fully attuned to all these modern electronic and other diversions still can savor a wonderful book like Watership Down when read aloud by a loving parent. We LIVED through Watership Down. My son read some of it to me while I was driving on a long trip - and I could hardly wait to know what was to happen next as I drove! The suspense was wonderful; we cried in many places; then laughed out loud at other parts. WHAT A JOY! I encourage EVERY parent out there to share this book with his or her child. We haven't read the sequel, "Tales," yet but will very soon. Can anyone out there suggest similar experiences? We tried Tolkien right after Narnia, but it was scary at age 6 - maybe now, at 10, we can try Tolkien again. Any other recommendations (especially for boys?).

Summary: One of the best ever..
Review: I will admit I do not read too often and I only read this because it was required by my school this year as my 10th grade assignment. The title made me think it was going to be a dull book about some guys on a boat so I came to Amazon.com and read these reviews. Obviously I was wrong and I began to anticipate the arrival of it since I had ordered. When I got it just after the first chapters I could tell it would be a great book. The characters develope so well by the end of the book and you really feel like you know them. The story is written so well and keeps you reading non stop. I read it over about 6 days reading it an hour or two each day. I am so glad I got this book as an assignment to read it has enlightened me to more and it's probably the best book so far that I have ever read flat out. Now some of you who disagree with what I say and totally didn't like the book, please don't refer to what I said when disagreeing. To tell you I flat out couldn't care less what you think. I am not so harsh just would like to add that. This is a superb book. Thanks :-)

Review: I really enjoyed this book ! Mr.Adams dose a REALLY good job on making u care about these animals. When I picked this book up I thought it was going to suck... But after about 20 or so pages I got sucked in to the other world, the rabbits world. And at about page 150 I couldn't put the book down it was so good ! I haven't read Tails For Watership Down, yet.. I'm buying it this weekend ! I hope it is as good as the first... I hope Mr.Adams writes more books about these amazing rabbits ! O yes if anyone wants to chat about this amazing book e-mail me or ICQ me at 7290662 !!

Summary: *WOW!!* A WONDERFUL BOOK!
Review: I recently read Watership Down for a required summer reading assignment. I wasn't looking forward to reading any books, but after finishing Watership Down, I realized what a great book it is. I can't believe how rabbits could have such an interesting life. Having read Watership Down makes me realize how if you work and stay and hope together, every will work out fine. I look forward to reading more of Richard Adams in the near future.
