Library
Tolkien,
J.R.R. The Annotated Hobbit.
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 2002.
Ms.
Werre chose this book because:
“Tolkien’s The Hobbit has always been a very special book to
me. Even though I have always been
a voracious reader, The Hobbit was one of the first books that my friends
and I read, shared, and discussed together and so it recalls many fond memories
of reading and friendship for me. The
Hobbit is a wonderful book of high fantasy that has something for everyone:
adventure, magic, dramatic action, and a small hero who overcomes huge obstacles
and achieves great things. This
annotated edition of The Hobbit will help students to more completely
understand and appreciate this remarkable book.”
