Watership Down – Richard Adams
General opinion here is that the only good rabbit is one on the other end of a shotgun, or in a pot. These ones I would let live, no problem. A quest story, with a little bit of environmentalism thrown in, a prophet, and a look at the politics of control, via your burrow fascism. This, of course, is all wrapped around a story that is designed to be accessible to children, to begin with.
