Watership Down
An epic tale of bunnies and battles. Think animal fiction is just for babies? Nope. The huge warren where young rabbit Fiver lives has been a safe haven for generations. But now Fiver’s sixth sense tells him danger is coming – and he’s not wrong. Land developers have arrived; the warren is about to be destroyed. There’s only one thing the rabbits can do: run. As they flee, they cross paths with scary General Woundwort (NOT a happy bunny). The General runs his warren like a military dictator. Uh-oh: their real problems are just starting…
