Oh shit, I absolutely loved that when I was little. I was given robinson crusoe when I was in 1st or 2nd grade, and it stuck with me for quite a while.

Holy shit! My dad read me that one when I was little too! Gave me nightmares.

I still loved it.

Yes, real good. Got rid of cute bunnies image and replaced it with fight-to-the-death rabbits.

Did you ever watch the movie? I remember my mom turning it off halfway though because it was so creepy. I had nightmares for days.

Yes, saw it. I guess we're lucky Disney didn't cartoon it.

Yeah, it was only a part of the book but it did a great job of including most disturbing details.

I'll have to introduce my kid to this. I remember this now but has been lost to me.

Its a long book. I've read it several times and own it. I had a library copy to read that my grade school librarian recommended to me. I read the book every night and placed it in the same spot on my bedside table. Until one day... I look for disappeared book everywhere, no one sees it, no one has it, I'm blamed for misplacing it. I have to do the walk of shame and tell the librarian I lost the book that was recommended to me. I had to pay a fine to replace it in the library. Middle of summer, schools over for the year, sibling strolls by and gives me the book because sibling was finally finished reading it and gives me the lame excuse that the book was sitting there every day and I wasn't reading it so shut up etc. I still have that same hard cover library book Watership Down (finally got to finish it when it came back).

I really liked the Earthsea trilogy.

And all of Edger Rice Burroughs' Martian Chronicles.
