The Hobbit Classic Hardback (Hardcover, Reissue)

With its map end papers, runic decoration and sampler-like colour plates of Rivendell and Hobbiton-across-the-Water, this edition of the seminal fantasy of the 20th century (its hero half romantic adventurer, half home-loving Hobbit) is a joy. (8-11 yrs) (Kirkus UK)
