I loved the novel Watership Down. The cartoon was a favourite of mine as a kid but once I read the novel... I was blown away. I usually read it once a year now. The characters felt like old friends to me after the first time reading it. I especially enjoyed the Rabbit mythology that is in the book.

A bit of trivia: The area in the novel is based on a real location in England. Smile

I read Watership Down as well. Although it has been quite a while since I have last read it.

I loved the conversations the rabbits had, and went through a lot of other books with "talking" animals. I loved the descriptions/words the animals had for "human" items.

I think these books were my basis of why Mark could talk to animals.

I watched Watership Down once when I was very young. It is one of 2 movies I swore I would never watch again (the other being "Old Yeller"). The movie left such an impression on me that I never read the book. But after reading everyone's comments, I think I may go to the local library and borrow it!

Yes all this talk is making me think I need to go back and re-read it.

I wonder if it is/ was one of the books I lost in the flood?
I have a feeling the Author is Adams, and the books I lost were the second half of the alphabet.

What I didn't know was that they want to scan your drivers liscense along with typing in your SS # for their records. I'm not sure why anybody would really need to have all of that information for allergy pills but I do know the "reason" that they will give you if you ask. To think that my family wonders why I don't want to have kids! I go insane enough in this world let alone have a kid that would have to live with the "control" factor all of its life. What happened to the Freedom

state that we once lived in? Thanks for letting me vent!!!

Sorry to hear that it was such a [ain, GG! Huggles

I hope you ar feeling better!
