ORR

Title: The Hobbit
Author: J.R.R. Tolkien
Genre: Fiction

You do not need to be tall if you want to be important and respected. In the book "The Hobbit" the smallest person is the greatest. The Hobbit who goes on an adventure with 13 dwarfs and one wizard, is the smallest but the most important person in the book. The Hobbit called Bilbo Baggins changed a lot. In the beginning of the book Bilbo was a useless little person who was chosen to help the thirteen dwarfs on their journey back home. Gandalf the great and wise wizard chose Bilbo to help them on their dangerous journey through the magic world but Bilbo has never left his little town in which it is always quiet and save. Bilbo is very small and the only thing that he is able to do is that he can cook well. Bilbo has no idea how dangerous the world outside his quiet town is. At the beginning of the book the dwarfs get often in trouble because of Bilbo and most of the time Bilbo has to be carried because he can't walk anymore, but when Bilbo gets lost in the mountain of the great Goblin he finds something magic, it is a ring. When Bilbo puts on the ring he becomes invisible for everybody. Bilbo does not tell anyone about the ring. When Gandalf leaves the dwarfs and Bilbo on their own they get in a lot of trouble. They get attacked by spiders and only Bilbo is able to escape because of his ring. The dwarfs were hanging tied up in the trees and around them were thousandths of spiders. At that moment Bilbo's live changes. He puts on his ring and starts to sing a song about the spiders. This was not a good song. It was against the spiders. Bilbo challenges thousandths of spiders to fight against him and the creatures where twice as big as him, but Bilbo was invisible. The Bilbo who was scared of everything did not exist anymore. He killed hundredths of spiders alone and saved his friends from their deaths. Bilbo was now very respected from  the dwarfs and he was the leader. Later Bilbo also helps them escape the wood elves. This is how the smallest becomes the greatest.
