Review of "Exploring J.R.R. Tolkien's The hobbit" on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

One of my favourite books, which I've read dozens of times since I was a child. It has stood the test of time and is accessible to children, but it doesn't feel like a children's book and is still enjoyable as an adult. Unlike Lord of the Rings, it can be read over the course of a few evenings, but it still feels like an epic adventure.
