Product Description
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. Bilbo2s 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 Tolkien2s 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 children2s 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 Children2s edition is designed to put the book back where it belongs - at the top of every child2s 2must-read2 list.
