    I enjoyed the novel The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. I believe that this novel presents important themes that are relevant in today’s society‚ just as much as they make up an entertaining plot.

This is because the elves hate how the dwarves

    regarding fantasy stories exists mainly on two levels. The first‚ a concern regarding the direct moral and spiritual implications of these stories‚ is perhaps the one predominantly focused upon today in our society. This is seen in the debate over J. K.
