Dit boek was erg leuk om te lezen.
Een prima boek voor mensen die houden van draken.
Het einde van het verhaal was echter wel een minpuntje. Het einde leek ietwat droevig te zijn, maar uiteindelijk was dat niet echt zo. Dit vond ik jammer. Er had mooi een tweede boek kunnen komen over de redding van de andere draken of iets dergelijks, maar helaas is deze mogelijkheid in een enkele pagina tenietgedaan...

In the beginning this book really got my attention by referring to old Dutch literature, which is something I like.
The actual story was less interesting though.
The end was good though! Not what most 'literature' has here.

There is quite some humour and sarcasm in this book, I love it.
I finished reading it within two days, for I couldn't stop myself.
I do not think that I have read anything like this before.
If you love Young Adult fantasy books and you want to read something adorable, you should probably check this book out.

This was a fun and nice book to read.
It is cool to see a lot of human things described from 'rabbit perspective' with only some of them knowing what to do with something.
I loved the parts where one of the rabbits came up with something smart, without a way to make the other rabbits understand how it worked. Like the boat.

Er zitten hier en daar wat taalfouten in het boek, maar het verhaal is op zich wel leuk.

This book was nice to read.
It set me thinking about immortality. How would it be to live hundreds of years, if nobody can remember you?

I really enjoyed reading this book.
For some of the poems I could easily see where they came from and that made me smile.
Several references to the original books also brought me a bright smile.
I think that the book is quite good, though of course it could have been even better.
At some points it feels a little bit serious.
I am not sure whether Carroll would be content with this book, I think he might be, but he would surely have a list with things that could be better. Carroll was quite perfectionist...
