【图书简介】 The classic story of Bilbo Baggins and his adventures through Rivendell， Mirkwood， and Erebor; released in a new paperback format. Easily one of the most famous children's books of modern times， "The Hobbit" is a must read and this edition will bring it to life for a whole new generation of readers. Bilbo Baggins enjoys a quiet and contented life， with no desire to travel far from the comforts of home. Then， one day， the wizard Gandalf and a band of dwarves arrive unexpectedly and enlist his services - as a burglar - on a dangerous expedition to raid the treasure-hoard of Smaug the dragon. Bilbo's life is never to be the same again. "The Hobbit" became an instant success when it was first published in 1937， and nearly 70 years later， Tolkien's epic tale of elves， dwarves， trolls， goblins， myth， magic and adventure， with its reluctant hero Bilbo Baggins， has become a timeless classic. This new children's edition of "The Hobbit"， with a refreshed cover， will bring this classic story to a whole new generation of readers.-读书网|DuShu.com
