'''A ''Times Educational Supplement'' Teachers' Top 100 Book'''
 
I've read ''The Hobbit'' at least three or four times. The first time was when I was about ten; the most recent (until now) was when I read it aloud to my sons - and that was probably twelve years ago. So it was definitely time for a re-read. Of course JRR Tolkien is now widely known due to the enormous appeal of the film versions of ''Lord of the Rings'', but there are people who still don't realise that the classic book ''The Hobbit'' was the precursor to that incredible trilogy. It was actually intended for children, but is one of those crossover books that is equally enjoyable to teenagers or adults.
