A phenomenal worldwide bestseller for more than forty years, Richard Adams's Watership Down is a timeless classic and one of the most beloved novels of all time. Set in England's Downs, a once idyllic rural landscape, this stirring tale of adventure, courage and survival follows a band of very special creatures on their flight from the intrusion of man and the certain destruction of their home. Led by a stouthearted pair of brothers, they journey forth from their native Sandleford Warren through the harrowing trials posed by predators and adversaries, to a mysterious promised land and a more perfect society.
Written for a family of small boys with whom the author was closely involved, this story has all the ingredients of the classic adventure: crocodiles, pirates, Red Indians, fairies, a dauntless hero and a beautiful heroine.

-Por favor..., ¡dibújame un cordero!
