I loved the books as a kid. I like the idea of a group of people trying to survive in a world that is bigger than they are. Life as a Borrower would be no picnic. Around the house and yard there would be mice, rats, spiders, roaches, bees, ants, crickets, birds, squirrels, a cat, a dog, etc. The Borrowers that live in the back or front yard are considered wild by those that live indoors and rather than borrowing what they need from humans they hunt insects for food and make their clothes from plants and the hair of animals (like mice or squirrels) that they hunt annually as a kind of community ritual and they frequently use insect exoskeletons as armor during these hunts.
