What story would you be reading if you came across characters such as hobbits elves Gandalf the wizard and gollum etc?
The Lord of the Rings written by John Ronald Reuel Tolkien. Born 3nd January, 1892 died at age 81, 2nd of September 1973.
Some of his works:
- The Hobbit
- The Lord of the Rings
- The adventures of Tom Bombadil
- The Children of Hurin
- The silmarillion
Fun Fact:
J.R.R. Tolkien were close friends with C.S. Lewis (the author of Narnia).
Their friendship really took off a year later when Tolkien invited Lewis to join a literary group known as "the Coalbiters." The group got together every week to read Icelandic epics in the original Old Norse language. These meetings inevitably led to a perusal of Tolkien's pet writing projects by Lewis, and vice versa. The timing could not have been much better, as both men were experiencing sweeping self-doubts about their respective writing abilities at the time, and may have otherwise kept their writing a private hobby. Tolkien having a hand in Lewis's return to Christianity bore its fruit in the Narnia series, and in return, Lewis prodded Tolkien relentlessly until he completed The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
It could easily be said that neither author would have earned the reputation they have today if not for their shared friendship. But did you know that J.R.R. Tolkien even based one of his characters on C.S. Lewis? Treebeard, the leader of the walking trees known as "Ents," shares many of Lewis's mannerisms, such as a booming voice and a constant throat-clearing habit. The deep camaraderie the duo shared is probably best summarized in a letter from Tolkien to his daughter following Lewis's death in 1963: "So far I have felt the normal feelings of a man my age -- like an old tree that is losing all its leaves one by one: this feels like an axe-blow near the roots."

What do hobbits like?
hobbits like to eat alot and they eat alot of potatoes :) read the books and it will tell you... (the 2nd book)Hobbits enjoy bright colors on their clothes (e.g. yellow, green, blue) and most all of them are quite fond of a good afternoon pipe. They love to gossip about the goings on of the Shire, and they adore birthday parties. Usually, about four birthday parties are going on in just one week, at which the host gives away presents to all of his guests (unlike our birthday parties nowadays...). In Fellowship of the Ring, we get a good glimpse of what a hobbit's birthday party is like (Frodo's and Bilbo's, to be exact); mirthful and merry, with plenty of music, dancing and laughter, and lots to eat and drink.Because above all else, what hobbits truly love most is food. They love to eat. A hobbit has six meals a day; breakfast, second breakfast, elevenses, lunch, afternoon tea, and supper - not to mention a few snacks in between. If you have seen the movie production of Fellowship of the Ring, you might remember Merry and Pippin sneaking into farmer Maggot's crops and getting away with carrots and corn, among other vegetables. Later on in the film, the four hobbits stumble across a patch of mushrooms in the path, and are thrown into a state of ecstasy. Even in The Two Towers, in a conversation between Sam and Gollum, we learn that one of Sam's favorite foods are potates (or "taters"), which he dearly misses.
