Watership Down: A family story

Outlook

Available for over a year

In the 1960s English civil servant Richard Adams drove his daughters Juliet and Rosamond to school and told them a story to pass the time. The tale was about rabbits trying to find a new place to live after developers move onto their field, and it became the best-selling children's classic Watership Down. Juliet and Rosamond tell us about the novel that changed their family's lives.
