The Essay on Bilbo Gandalf Thorin Erebor
As Mr. Tolkien explains, Hobbits are a very ancient people. Peaceful and well ordered. They love food and are never in a hurry. Smaller than dwarves, ranging between two and four feet tall. They seldom wore shoes because their feet were covered in thick curly hair, and have tough leathery soles. They loved parties and presents, you would never ask for a better host Head of the Baggins family, he ...
The ring makes him invisible when he puts it on. Then they get in trouble with giant spiders and with elves before the group actually arrives at Smaug’s mountain. Bilbo uses the ring to rescue the from many situations. When Bilbo and the get to the cave, Bilbo puts on his ring and taunts the dragon. The lake-town of Esgaroth is the victim of Smaug’s terror because of Bilbo’s taunting. Bard is willing to challenge Smaug and he has help from a messenger bird, called a thrush.
The thrush relays information that Bilbo discovered while in Smaug’s lair: the hollow of Smaug’s left breast is not plated with his red-gold armor. When Bard strikes this spot, Smaug falls dead, his massive body crushing the city of Esgaroth. Many of the civilizations hear of Smaug’s death and threat in the for money. A large battle then forms over the fight of the treasure. The battle includes men, elves and.
The separate groups are ready to attack until Gandalf tells them of the approach of the Goblins, bats, wolves and Wars. The armies re-align themselves. The battle is named the ‘Battle of Five Armies’. It is only with the final arrival of the Eagles, that the forces of good are sustained. However, Bilbo is hit with a stone, and is knocked unconscious. After recovering in the company of Gandalf, Bilbo makes his way back home and their journey is far more pleasant than it was the first time.
Bilbo is disappointed to learn that his greedy cousins, the Sackville-Baggins es, are auctioning his property because he is ‘Presumed Dead.’ It took years for Bilbo to sort out all the legal things. In fact, Bilbo had to buy back a a lot of his own furniture. Bilbo, however, did find a pleasant medium to live by. b. The end of his journey is believable. It was certainly unexpected, but definitely believable.

However, the very ending of the story is a little messed up. His relatives are greedy and sell all of his property, and when Bilbo returns, they are unhappy. So much for his family. VI.
Themes of the novel a. Some of the themes of the novel are loneliness, imprisonment, and knowledge. These themes tell people that it is good to have friends and people to talk to. Gollum is one of the strangest characters of the book and he is alone. I believe that he would be some what normal if he had a person to talk to. Imprisonment comes from the always being captured by trolls, elves, and other such creatures.
I think imprisonment says that you should always fight to be free and to be an individual. Knowledge is showed by Gandalf and Bilbo. Gandalf constantly uses his knowledge of different subjects to predict what is going to happen. Bilbo uses the knowledge when he answers Gollum’s riddles.
I think having knowledge is a big part of life… The more you know, the better off you are. VII. Passage a. ‘So comes snow after fire, and even dragons have their ending.’ -Bilbo am not sure how this captures the essence of the book, but when I thought about it, I felt as though it summed up the whole book. Throughout the whole book Bilbo and the are being bombarded with obstacles.
This passage is saying how obstacles come, and how obstacles go. Everything has some sort of an end, I believe. VIII. Rating a. I loved this book. It was filled with action and adventure.
Also showed me that some things are worth change for. Bilbo was never an adventure before Gandalf came, but now he is braver. Although, I don’t think Bilbo will be going an adventures like that again. I give the book a 9. 9. I must leave some room for a perfect book!.
