Since we're recommending books to each other (Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, etc.), I'd like to reco "Watership Down", a fantasy by Richard Adams. It's about rabbits and their journey to a new home, but if you read it, you'll find out it's really a lot more than that.
"The story follows a warren of Berkshire rabbits fleeing the destruction of their home by a land developer. As they search for a safe haven, skirting danger at every turn, we become acquainted with the band and its compelling culture and mythos. Adams has crafted a touching, involving world in the dirt and scrub of the English countryside, complete with its own folk history and language (the book comes with a "lapine" glossary, a guide to rabbitese). As much about freedom, ethics, and human nature as it is about a bunch of bunnies looking for a warm hidey-hole and some mates, Watership Down will continue to make the transition from classroom desk to bedside table for many generations to come."
Waaaa pa next ako Ms. J! Nabasa nyo na ba ung Animal Farm?
Sure, bah! Ikaw na ang mag-pressure kay Fraggle, hehehe. Yup, I've read Animal Farm. And 1984. Loved them both. Love books!
