Bilbo is also included in the company because the Dwarves are loyal to Gandalf, and trust Gandalf. Bilbo shows loyalty towards the Dwarves throughout the novel by putting himself in dangerous situations to help or save the Dwarves, such as saving them from the spiders in Mirkwood, or freeing them from the Elvish prison.

The Hobbit shares many of it's themes and several of its key qualities in characters with those established in previous stories or myths, starting with Bilbo Baggins. The aristocratic line present in the halfling’s family tree earns him the comfort and joy of the largest home with the most luxury in Bag End. Bilbo happens to be a Hobbit, which could be compared that of the most common physical description of Brownies with their small stature, brown curly hair, and docile nature. The childlike build of Hobbits gives an air of youth despite that the person may be middle aged, they are also a sheltered group that remains in their home’s reach and care not of adventures as noted by Bilbo;”I should think so- in these parts! We are plain quiet folk and have no use for adventures. Nasty disturbing uncomfortable things!

So, roughly one million Americans are now suffering from autism. Over twenty-four years the amount of vaccines children receive grew from less than ten…
