So far in this book I have found many main characters and small parts. This includes, Bilbo Baggins (The Hobbit), The two wizards, Gandalf and Radagast, Thorin who is the leader of the Dwarves and then his company Which consists of 13 Dwarves.
The author of this book is J. R. R. Tolkien who is a outstanding auther! He also writes The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion both of which are Fantasy!
This whole story is about the journey of Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into a quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands. Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities including a simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.
Now, keep in mind that this book is only the first part of his journey and continued into the second part, The Hobbit; Desolation of Smaug. There are also movies for both of these outstanding books for anyone that may not want to or have time to read.
Overall, I strongly believe that people should read The Hobbit because it is very enjoyable and lets you come out of your comfort zone and takes you places in fantasy that you may have never been before.
Hmmm. Very interesting Maddie. Keep up the good work
