Give this beautiful gift edition of J.R.R. Tolkien's enchanting classic fantasy tale, The Hobbit, fully illustrated by artist Jemima Catlin.
In The Hobbit, the beloved introduction to Middle-earth, Bilbo Baggins enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling farther than the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on his doorstep to whisk him away on an epic journey to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon....
“A glorious account of a magnificent adventure, filled with suspense and seasoned with a quiet humor that is irresistible... All those, young or old, who love a fine adventurous tale, beautifully told, will take The Hobbit to their hearts.”—The New York Times Book Review
