The Hobbit

by

Bilbo Baggins enjoys a quiet and contented life, with no desire to travel far from the comforts of home; then one day the wizard Gandalf and a band of dwarves arrive unexpectedly and enlist his services - as a burglar - on a dangerous expedition to raid the treasure-hoard of Smaug the dragon. Bilbo's life is never to be the same again. The Hobbit became an instant success when it was first published in 1937, and more than 60 years later Tolkien's epic tale of elves, dwarves, trolls, goblins, myth, magic and adventure, with its reluctant hero Bilbo Baggins, has lost none of its appeal. Bilbo Baggins has taken his place among the ranks of the immortals of children's fiction. Written by Professor Tolkien for his own children, The Hobbit met with instant critical acclaim when published - it was the Harry Potter of its generation. With new Lord of the Rings movies around the corner, this special Children's edition is designed to put the book back where it belongs - at the top of every child's 'must-read' list. Hide synopsis

never recieved this book

by Bonnie M on Feb 21, 2013

I have yet to hear from the seller or Alibri's as to why I never received this book. I have read the hobbit and thoroughly enjoyed it, but I wanted my own copy. The only book I received was a companion guide to Lord of the Ring's and it definetly is not worth purchsing. More

Great book! Read it many years ago, before the movies existed. Purchased this one for a young friend that doesn't like to read. More
