“The Hobbit” is a delightful book for children. The great work it gave birth to, “The Lord of the Rings,” is the greatest fantasy novel ever written. It towers over everything, influenced everything, that has come after it. I first read it in junior high school during the 1970s and seldom does a year go by when I do not find myself re-reading it in wonder.

    Read them in college...need to read them again. I will not be reading The Hobbit again. It took me longer to get through The Hobbit than the trilogy. I remember loving The Two Towers.

    Have you noticed that Hobbit society looks more like actual human society than the Humans on the Middle Earth?
