I love animals. So much so that I refuse to eat them - and that I love reading about them, or even writing about them. As October 4th is World Animal Day, here's a list of books with animal protagonists that are well worth a read (and that I enoyed).
1. Animal Farm by George Orwell (one of my favourites)
2. The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame (much more than a children's book)
3. Watership Down by Richard Adams (made me cry when I was a child)
4. Moby-Dick by Herman Melville (a classic)
5. Call of the Wild by Jack London (a memorable adventure)
6. The Wolf Chronicles Series by Dorothy Hearst (i LOVE wolves)
7. Black Beauty by Anna Sewell (made me fall in love with horses)
8. The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling (a must read)
9. Charlotte's Web by E.B. White (although I hate spiders)
10. The Sight Series by David Clement-Davies (did I mention I love wolves? *lol*)
Have you read any great books where the main characters were animals? I'm always open for suggestions!
