Review

Praise for THE HOBBIT novel:

‘The English-speaking world is divided into those who have read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings and those who are going to read them.’
Sunday Times

‘A finely written saga of dwarves and elves, fearsome goblins and trolls… an exciting epic of travel and magical adventure, all working up to a devastating climax.’
Observer

4.0 out of 5 stars Providing hours of fun, this is a must-have for any fan of the new Hobbit film: an unexpected journey! 3 April 2013
By Lucinda
Format:Hardcover
This annual was an unexpected delight which is full of stunning full-color photographs that capture the wonders of Peter Jackson's new epic film. Full of interesting activities that will keep children (and older children alike!) busy for hours; I would highly recommend this book to add to your collection of Hobbit memorabilia. Join Bilbo Baggins on his unexpected journey across Middle-Earth with Gandalf the Wizard and a company of thirteen Dwarves, all from the brilliant new movie which is simply spectacular.

Included within this 61 page hardback volume are some exciting treats, such as; your own company contract, full-color map of the company's journey across Middle-Earth (from Mirkwood to the Misty Mountains and Rivendell), cut-out bookmarks and character profiles. What also makes this annual special is that alongside the frivolities is the detailed information included about each character and how the film is connected to JRR Tolkien's novel "The Hobbit" - which is a treat for those who want in-depth material on the story that was put on the big screen.

Fun activities include:
Puzzles, wordsearch, drawing
And my favorite...
Riddles in the dark!

I am so pleased to add `the Hobbit: 2013 annual' to my collection, as a fan of both the book and the incredible first film. I however do feel that at £7.99 (UK pricing) it is certainly over priced and so if you can purchase this second-hand, then I would highly recommend that you do so for it would make an ideal, inspired gift or present for any Hobbit lover. Due to the price I have rated this accordingly, for I purchased my own copy a lot cheaper online secondhand.

Good book for younger Hobbit enthusiasts, if the film is a bit too intense and they'd like something to read then this is great.
