Le Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien

There and Back Again

A shy, comfort-loving hobbit is swept from his peaceful home into an unexpected quest with a wizard and a band of dwarves to reclaim a lost mountain stronghold from a fearsome dragon. Along the way he faces trolls, goblins, giant spiders and a cryptic creature in an underground cave, acquires a mysterious ring that grants invisibility, and discovers resourcefulness, courage and loyalty he never knew he had. The journey combines adventure, danger and moments of quiet humor, ending with a dramatic struggle for the treasure and the hobbit’s bittersweet return to ordinary life, changed by his experiences.
