This was an surprisingly epic tale of a band of rabbits set out to find a new burrow somewhere. The prose of the author was amazing and described the world and characters so well. I also loved the rabbit lore in between. It's fascinating to read about the different social constructs of rabbits and the way the organise their life and leadership. All applicable to our world as well. Therefore of course it's a story about rabbits, but it also has so much depth to it.
