Summary: Cool book!
Review: A wonderful tale of survival! This is a tale of a people with a culture, heroes, and heroic tales all their own. I love Fiver and his psychic abilities, and Mr. Adams does a wonderful job with Fiver's spells, they sent chills down my spine! Those who laugh at "talking bunnies" or who are bored with this book: GET AN IMAGINATION!!!! It's healthy!

Summary: This book is definitely worth reading
Review: At first, the beginning seemed to go by slowly. After that, when things picked up a bit, I was surprised and pleased at how much I enjoyed reading it. I'm not quite through with it yet, but I could tell 200 pages ago that this book is a classic! It is a tale of great friendships that go through physical and emotional stress over a long period of time; it encourages us to examine our own lives and personalities more closely. I encourage everyone to read this extraordinary book!

Review: Watership Down was one of the best books I have ever read. Go read it as soon as you can. My favorite part in the book was the last part.

Summary: The most Beautiful Story I've ever read
Review: A few reviewers resisted from liking this novel. Richard Adams wrote this precisely so that people WOULD be responsive to it, and not ignore it due to 'its got nothing to do with humans' cliche, because it is VERY much about humans. Richard Adam's novel is so sensitive and wonderfully written, it is suspenseful and ends very sadly, but happily. I'd thoroughly recommend Richard Adams 'The Plague Dogs' also to those who loved this.

Summary: A Wonderful Book
Review: Adams' best book. Truly magnificent. The way he describes the characters and their strife against Efrafa is outstanding. You cannot get any better than this in the fantasy world.

Summary: A Classic for All Ages
Review: I am not in the habit of judging others by what they read or don't read, but after reading some of the poor reviews (I think there were about 6 out of the over 100 reviews this book received), I feel compelled to answer their claims. First, it was stated that this book is not for kids. I think this statement discourages countless intelligent young minds from reading a true classic. (Incidently-for those who think this book cannot be enjoyed by children, the author disagrees-Richard Adams originally told it as a bedtime story to his own child.) As for the claims of students who said "no one in my class liked it", to me this is simply evidence of a generation raised on video games and television-children and young adults who have no creativity and are devoid of imagination. Finally, I believe I saw 3 or 4 reviews that stated this book was lacking in action and adventure. Did you people even read this book? It not only was an adventure (every step of the way) for! the characters, but also for the readers mind. Now I would like to give my own review of this wonderful story. My first introduction to it was through my oldest brother-he had read it for school in the sixth grade and loved it. I was only seven when I first read it, and I was enchanted by the new world I had discovered within its pages. To me, the benchmark of a truly great author is to make the impossible believable. Adams accomplishes this task with ease in "Watership Down". By creating an entire civilization-complete with government, language, and even a unique mythology, Adams draws his readers deeper into their own imaginations where anything is possible and gives them a new way to look at our own role in the unending cycle of life. My recommendation is to read this book as young as possible-and to reread it many times throughout your life. It will expand your minds and open the doors of imagination for your children. My praise and thanks to Richard Adams for a! job very well done!

Summary: . . . as of now that is my rating
Review: I am up to page 400 and I still do not see why everyone is raving that this book is one of the best books of all time. I understand that it must be an alagory for something, but what? What keeps me going while reading this mandatory book is the number of pages that I have passed, and the hope that it will all be worth it when I finally get to the "sad ending." What I do not like, though, is how most readers are stating that if you do not understand the book you are a shallow person. Some books I feel are difficult to read through and to understand completely, and I don't think that those who have a hard time with it should be put down. Perhaps I will feel differently when I myself finish the book, but that is my feeling at the present time.

Summary: A great read,real content and memorable characters
Review: When I was very young I was reading a child series that I really enjoyed. On the cover it said something about a book called watership Down. I ordered the book from my school library. When my teacher flopped down a 400+ word book I was taken aback. I decided to give it a try. It was One of if not the best book I have ever read, the characters are well developed and deep, the plot is fast- paced and moving, and the storys are even pretty neat. After finishing it in 3 days in fifth grade I read it again in eighth. I found it awesome again and I understood more at a deeper level. For those of you who give this book one or two stars you obviously don't know a good read when you see one. This book has plenty of action and many levels. It has also won awards and is known as a classic. I recomend it to anyone who bothers reads this.

Summary: Not what it seems
Review: The wonderful thing about this book is that almost anyone can read it and derive a different story. I read it first as a child, when it seemed like a wonderful adventure story about rabbits. I've read numerous times since then and each time it is different. The story isn't about rabbits, but about us, about life, death, hope. The rabbits are only symbols or masks of ourselves. This is a book that will open your mind, your heart, and your soul. Truly a classic.
