Goodness this book. I never really consumed the whole story, I watched the kids series in the early 2000s so I knew some of the things that happened but not all of it and oh it was amazing and i just cant believe I never read it before 😭

Wat een prachtig verhaal blijft dit. Als kind (en nu nog) vond ik de televisieserie van waterschapsheuvel geweldig en het is me altijd bij gebleven. Om nu het originele boek te lezen is daarom ontzettend nostalgisch voor mij en dit maakt het verhaal natuurlijk nog mooier en specialer dan dat het al is. Peter Capaldi's stem is erg fijn om naar te luisteren en ook zijn Schotse accent komt af en toe naar voren bij bepaalde personages en dat maakt het nog leuker.

Such a fun and heartwarming tale about rabbits looking for a new home and the trouble they get into along the way. If I had to criticize something it would be that the characters could have been drawn a little more intricately but all in all; I just love this book

Lastig om in het verhaal te komen aan het begin, maar na een tijdje kon ik het niet meer wegleggen! Super leuk verhaal en nostalgisch vanwege de tv-serie van vroeger!
