I first read this amazing book when it come out in the 1970s, as a teenager. I loved it then and I still love it now. At least once a year for the past three or more years I pick it up and read it again. That's what I'm doing now, reading "Watership Down" again. A fantastic story about the lives of rabbits as a certain number of them leave their warren to find a new home, as one of them, Fiver is his name, has a premonition of "bad things to come." Fiver's brother, Hazel, leads them on a journey to a new home, with a lot of adventures along the way. This story "humanizes" the rabbits, we see them as having fears, and emotions such as we humans have. This is a classic, if you're never read it, you'll be hooked by this fantastic story.
