| Notes: | Hobbits are little people, smaller than dwarves. They love peace and quiet and good tilled earth. They are nimble but don’t like to hurry. They inhabit a land they call The Shire, a place between the River Brandywine and the Far Downs. The Hobbit is a story of these delightful creatures — a story that tells of Bilbo Baggins, the far-wandering hobbit who discovered (some say stole) the One Ring of Power and brought it back to The Shire. COMMENTS — The Lord of the Rings trilogy is a sequel to The Hobbit. |
