i put the detective on it [img]wink.gif[/img]
i'm searching for a book....
in fact, i just need the damned title...
it was a book i once owned... and i no longer
have it (prolly due to moving alot)....
its a children's book... similar to
THE ELEVENTH HOUR by graeme base
(click here for cover illustration)
anyways... this book was written (i believe)
in the late 70s/early 80s... but maybe
it wasn't.
it was similar to ELEVENTH HOUR in that it
had similar drawings...
the story goes like this:
there was a hare....
he had visited the moon...
the moon (female) had given him a gift...
the hare was to take the gift to the sun (male)....
and the entire book was the hare's journey
to the sun
********
ever since i've lost this book... i cannot
recall the name or author... just the subject/story.
i am pretty sure the author was english...
(as in GB, folks)
if anyone....... and i mean ANYONE knows
or can find out the name of this book...
oh man... i just can't tell you how thankful
i'd be...
PUUUUUUUULLLLLEEEEESE HELP!!!!
i've searched a long time, i'm fuckin desperate

Was it "Watership Down"?
<font size="4" face="Tempus Sans ITC, Tahoma">Dunno if this helped or not. Even if it's not the one you are looking for, this one book AND movie, are AWESOME!! EVERYONE needs to see this!I still watch it every now and then.Tagline: All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and when they catch you, they will kill you.Based upon Richard Adam's novel of the same title, this animated feature delves into the surprisingly violent world of a warren of rabbits as they seek to establish a new colony free of tyranny and human intervention. Frightening and bloody in some scenes. Not recommended for young children.In the Sandleford warren, Fiver, a young runt rabbit who is a seer, receives a frightening vision of his warren's immenient destruction. When he and his loving brother, Hazel, fail to convince their chief of the need to evacuate; they set out on their own with a small band of others who heeded the warning and barely manage to elude the Warren's military caste. What follows is a perilous journey in which the band faces dangers of all varieties like predators, humans and even their own kind. While they eventually find a peaceful new home at Watership Down, they have new problems that will lead to a deadly conflict with the neighbouring Warren called Efrafa, which is a police state by the powerful and insane General Woundwart.
i own two copies of that book alone [img]redface.gif[/img]
it is a great novel... (poor mr. pipkin!!!)
but alas, no....
the book i'm referring to is definitely a
children's book... probably around the 10 and
under age.
if anyone has read ELEVENTH HOUR... you'd know
that the book revolved around a mystery...
and you, the reader, have to solve the mystery
because the book does not tell you directly.
the book of the hare and the moon/sun is greatly
similar... there is a mystery to solve....
namely, what the gift of the moon is
thanks, gg... i love watership down... [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
i love it too... ahh memories
I'm gonna have to rent that again tonight or this week. I'd love for my kids to see it, but it does have some cuss words in it and it is kinda dramatic. I'd hate for my kids to be crying, saying they are killing off the easter Bunny.*L* I dunno, what do ya'll think? Too dramatic and a few cuss words, nothing real bad like the dreaded "F" word, too bad for kids? I dunno, I've got my kids this weekend and I just dunno if this is a good cartoon for them yet. I mean they are only 7 & 2. Maybe I'll wait.
yeah... hold off on the movie...
not singularly due to the content, cuz i'm just
not the kinda person that would mind the cursing
and killing so much....
but i think it would be alot better to let them
read it in time... as the movie doesn't have
as much as the book does.
another great fricken *childrens* book turned
to animation was THE MOUSE AND HIS CHILD...
great great great
yes, that is the book
