Ugh. I hated this book. It was really boring, especially in the beginning. The battling rabbits were kind of disturbing. Don't read this, unless you want to be bored.

Hated it. It was so boring i finished it in two months and i am a fast reader. I don't get the point and message. Books are supposed to give you a good message allthis was about was danger felling bunnies. Not good for kids teens or adults unless you never want to read a book again. The most horrible book ever. Please take my word and dont read. If you want to read a good book with aa message just limit out this book no message and bunnies dont set good romodels only if you want to eat carrots the rest of your life. Sorry i hated this boring book. I give it 1 star because i cant put none. Thanks please agrree and listen if you havent read it yet.!!!!!!!!!

I have seen the movie and I have read the book and I think this is one of the greatest books I have ever read, the plot is outstanding and the characters are well developed and the conflict and struggle the rabbits in the book undergo can capture the emotion any reader and The story of course has a positive message and underlying theme. Before letting children read it however, you should sit and talk to them about the material and the context that your children may see in the book. With children matured and talked to about the book. This book can mature children and give them an incredible read. Well done Richard Adams! I have not been into reading before but reading this has turned my Opinion around!

I LOVED THIS BOOK! I really enjoyed reading this book after I got passed part I 'The Journey'. I think it might be hard for people who are not good readers to read. I like how the author added a language the rabbits used, but some people won't like having to remember what the rabbit words mean. It is not very violent but there are some places where it gets rough, you will mostly here of this through stories. It may be upsetting to more sensitive readers how some rabbits are killed by humans and other rabbits. This book it good for both girls and boys as it has both boys and girls. The names may be strange because some of the boys have names that seem like girls names and vise-versa and others are just plain strange here is an example: some of the Bucks (males): Hazel, Holly, Bluebell, Laurel, & Bigwig. Some of the Does (females): Clover, Haystack, and Hyzenthlay.

Richard Adams has painted a beautifully vivd picture set in a grassy hill-embellished highland in the county of Hampshire, England filled with bands of moles, dear and plenty of rabbits. Right away, the novel casts you deep into the introspective and spiritual life of this clan of rabbits constantly in strife to find a new home in an eloquently riveting tale of merit and moral honor. I once read this 412 (depending on the issue) page novel at the wee age of 9, not being able to comprehend the complex mythological references and elegant writing, the jist of it caught my fancy. A band of rabbits trying to seek refuge amongst a world of danger, temptation and the desire to honor their godlike figure, El-Ahrairah. I reccomend this book-an anthropomorphic odessy of sorts-to those who enjoy the works of Homer, or those readers who enjoy a warm sense of gruesome imagery. As most of the book is a battle scene war strategies, warfare enthusiasts may also find interest in this fine piece of classical literature that's been prescribed by high schools all over the nation. This book may either be dark and scary or full of hope and poetic meaning-either of which is up to you-I give this book a 4 out of 5 stars.

I think it's a cute story about bunnies bonding together no matter what happens, but it is way violent.

Once again, every time I talk about this book, I cannot think of anything good enough to say. Rabbits made my day, so let them make yours.

Watership Down is an excellent book. I don't think people younger than maybe 13 or 14 could really fully apprieciate it but I really loved it. It's a classic tale of rabbits who are most life like in this epic tale.
