The Hobbit is the unforgettable story of Bilbo Baggins, a peace-loving hobbit who embarks on a strange and magical adventure. A timeless classic.
Bilbo enjoys a quiet and contented life, with no desire to travel far from the comforts of home; then one day the wizard Gandalf and a band of dwarves arrive unexpectedly and enlist his services as a burglar on a dangerous expedition to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the dragon. Bilbo’s life is never to be the same again.
