This was a book that I read a long time ago, so I'm struggling to come up with much detail about it. I know that the main characters are rabbits and I think wolves come into it somewhere also. A wolf might be among the main characters, I'm not sure. Any suggestions you can give me would be great!

Was this an adult or a children's book? Novel or picture book?
Could it have been one of the Mossflower series by Brian Jacques?
It may have been teen or young adult. It definately wasn't a picture book.
It looks so cute, but it wasn't a picture book.
Was it Rabbit Hill by Robert Lawson? That's an old classic I read as a child. Here is the summary from our library catalog: "New folks are coming to live in the Big House. The animals of Rabbit Hill wonder if they will plant a garden and thus be good providers."
No, I don't think thats it...But thanks!
Its possible, but as far as I can recall I've only ever read one of Brian Jacques and it was about an otter.
No, I think the age group was older than that.
I know there have been other Brian Jacques suggestions, but several of his novels did feature hares and were young adult/adult. One that focused on them was I think The Long Patrol. Don't know if this is it, as they are hares, not rabbits...
could it be a taste for rabbit by linda zuckerman?
I found this book but have no information on contents:Foxglove Hollow
A picture of its cover is here at http://www.biblio.com/books/97643542....
A Taste For Rabbit looks interesting, but I would consider 2007 to be recent, rather than "a long time ago." Angel, what does "a long time ago" mean to you?
Could it be one of the books by Beatrix Potter?
Maybe one of the Colin Dann books such as this?In the Path of the Storm (Animals of Farthing Wood #6).
Wow, sorry. Its been awhile since I was on goodreads and I forgot that I had written this. I looked through all of the suggestions and none of them are what I'm looking for. It had to have been between 10-15 years ago now. It took place in the woods. It wasn't anything like Beatrix Potter, if I remember right there was a darker element to it. There were definitely wolves and rabbits. I don't believe humans were involved.

ETA: I actually feel pretty good about this guess. Looking back at this book it is about rabbity and wolflike critters.
