  1. 5/5 Liesbeth

    boken är helt underbar, man får följa Hazel, Fiver, Bigwig, Pipkin, Blueberry, Clover, Dandelion, Clover och Silver som flyr från sin tidigare "warren" i jakt på en ny plats att kalla hem. de möter många nya kaniner, djur och människor. Man lär sig mycket av dessa kaniner, om vänskap, lojalitet, styrka och att vara kunnig som El-ahrairah. Boken kallar sig själv som en bra familjebok, men utav egen erfarenhet av filmen i mina unga dagar så ska man vara medveten om att det kan vara blodig och känslosam.

  2. 5/5 Jenny
