All the lighthearted poems of the Hobbit are here along with Tolkien own drawings and art work. Most of the songs and the classic riddles from Gollums cave are included. With many of the poems broken up and told by various people, these are all together. It is time to crack the dishes and break the plates and read these enchanting poems to your kids and even reread them yourself. Since the Hobbit was the light hearted introduction to the ring, these poems are much less dark than some of the others in the Lord of the Rings. Some are sad but none have an overbearing dark flavor. no reviews | add a review
A collection of J.R.R. Tolkien's Hobbit poems in a miniature hardback volume complete with illustrations by Tolkien himself. Far over misty mountains cold To dungeons deep and caverns old We must away ere break of day To seek the pale enchanted gold. J.R.R. Tolkien's acclaimed The Hobbit contains 12 poems which are themselves masterpieces of writing. This miniature book, illustrated with 30 of Tolkien's own paintings and drawings from the book -- some quite rare and all in full colour -- includes all the poems, plus Gollum's eight riddles in verse, and will be a perfect keepsake for lovers of The Hobbit and of accomplished poetry.
