Just as a random note, St. Ninian's is not actually a church. It's explained in a later book. A mousewife (I think) built a house and her husband, Ninian, wouldn't help. She put up a sign, saying "This ain't Ninian's!" and all that was eventually left was "saint ninians". It's explained in the form of a song... somewhere... 129.62.48.184 (talk) 17:02, 26 June 2008 (UTC) What is the highest you can get? A++ or +++? i also put no because, it is a real book and not a task of the fantasy task force. Ninian, you need a citation. Jeez, read the rules.[reply]

I'm pretty sure the song is in Martin the Warrior when Martin is describing where he was born Jpjacobs.00 (talk) 18:02, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the song is in The Legend of Luke. :) Thimbleguy (talk) (contribs) 02:02, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relation to ancient literature

There is an ancient Greek parody of the Iliad called "The Battle of Frogs and Mice" https://www.gutenberg.org/files/348/348-h/348-h.htm

Redwall is the same thing retold as a children's novel.

Homer sympathized with both Greeks and Trojans, but in Redwall the mice are good and the rats are evil. Same problem with Tolkien.

Books from 2500 years ago are more open-minded and tolerant than what the present generation grew up with. (!) A.j.allinger (talk) 06:15, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
