Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling any farther than his pantry or cellar. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an adventure. They have launched a plot to raid the treasure hoard guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. Bilbo reluctantly joins their quest, unaware that on his journey to the Lonely Mountain he will encounter both a magic ring and a frightening creature known as Gollum.

I really love this book. Tolkien uses old English in this book,and it actually ties in with the detail that Tolkien used. It's like Fablehaven, but with no humans and older.
i agree with you, When my dad reads it to us and finds a n old English word he's like, "What the heck does THAT mean?" :)
i love this cool book.
AMAZING BOOK!!!! If you like fantasy you will LOVE this book.
I like the books but i think i like the movie more because its more exciting.
This a pretty good book, and I have the same b-day as Bilbo and Frodo!
A thrilling ride through the adventurous world of J.R.R. Tolkien.
The Hobbit is my favorite book and I like the Dwarfs and there messiness
The hobbit is about a hobbit named Bilbo, he lives a normal hobbit life until the wizard, Gandalf comes to tell him of an adventure to come. Soon Bilbo sets off with thirteen dwarves to seek the treasure from the dragon Smaug. For those who are into fantasy-adventure.
