Battle for the Park is the seventh (and in linear terms the final) book of The Animals of Farthing Wood series. It was first published in 1992 and has since been included with The Siege of White Deer Park and In the Path of the Storm in the "Second Omnibus" edition (Hutchinson, 1995).
The inhabitants of White Deer Park face a new danger as a pack of town rats arrives at the nature reserve, intent on taking it over for themselves. Meanwhile, many of the animals in the park go missing and the others take it upon themselves to find out where they have gone.
The events of this book are covered throughout the third season of The Animals of Farthing Wood (TV series), though the sequence of events is changed slightly.
