Looking for an interesting series, where the books are written from animals point of view. Kind of like Orwell’s Animal Farm, but more fantasy / sci-fi / action.

We may follow a group of fighting turtle, or a rat’s journey to home after getting lost, things like that. If taking example from movies, Ant Z is an example.

Any recommendations?

Only adult one I can think of is Tailchaser’s Song by Tad Williams (cats). There’s a ton of these for kids, though; here’s a few I’ve read:

  • Redwall series by Brian Jacques (forest critters; I found it repetitive after the first few, but ymmv)
  • Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH by Robert C. O’Brien (rats)
  • Stewart Little by E.B. White (mouse)
  • Charlotte’s Web by by E.B. White (pig)

Edit: Sorry, I derped on the scifi/fantasy/action aspect of the request; the E.B. White books don’t fall into that category.

I like Tad Williams work, will check out Tailchaser’s Song. It looks pretty interesting.

And no worries, could still be fun to check out.
