Maya's Review on Watership Down

The book Watership Down is about a group of wild rabbits who leave their warren, and must make a long journey to find a new one. On the way, they encounter many dangers, and sometimes come close to panic. Can this group of rabbits reach their new home?

This is one of my favorite books of all time, and this was my second time reading it. It has suspense, adventure, and a perfect mix of reality and fiction. My favorite chapter is when the rabbits meat an injured seagull, Kehaar, and help him to get better. In return, Kehaar stays with them for some time, and helps them on many occasions. I also like this book because some chapters are stories being told by one of the rabbits to the rest. Its sort of a story within a story and makes the book more interesting, because you get a chance to read what the rabbits believe, and it makes you believe them more as characters. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes animal stories.
