The Hobbit Persuasive Letter
Dear Mr. Tolkien,
The Hobbit is an amazing story filled with terrific characters, an astounding setting and a pleasant mix of mature and kid friendly content. The overall feel of the novel was comforting. I myself am a big fan of adventure and journey based books so this in a way felt like I was in paradise. The particular way that you told the story; from a third person narrator with lots of voice, made the book all the better.

    Thank you so much for all that you do for Howard County. Mount Hebron High School is greatly appreciative of your help in creating a better school environment. The 2,000 dollar grant has been used to create a native plant garden in the senior courtyard. We decided that native plants would be the best plan as it conserves water, time, and money.

    I think this book was great. This book has more detail than Lord Of The Rings making it slow sometimes. I liked how the writer interviewed the McCandless family after Christopher's death making the book seem much more personal. If you ever want to go on an adventure, NEVER be like Christopher McCandless.…

    As famous German author, Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, once said, “Character develops itself in the stream of life” (Goethe 1). Most people do not stay the same over the course of their life. Personal experiences create growth in one’s character. These experiences can create a feeling of triumph or self-confidence which can be enough to change someone over time. This can be applied to reality or fiction. In The Hobbit, character change serves as the vocal point of the novel. J.K.K Tolkien portrays character change through symbolism. She uses symbolic settings and characters to portray character change and growth throughout the story. In J.K.K Tolkien’s novel, The Hobbit, a life changing journey symbolizes Bilbo Baggins’s transformation to self-actualization.…

    “Soon the goblins had a ring of smoke and flame all round the dwarves, a ring which they kept from spreading outwards; but it closed slowly until the running fire was licking the fuel piled under the trees. Smoke was in Bilbo’s eyes, he could feel the heat of the flames( even though he was so high up in the trees); and through the reek he could see the goblins dancing round and round in a circle like people round a midsummer bonfire. Outside the ring of dancing warriors stood the wolves at a respectful distance watching and waiting to devour the first person that dropped dead out of the treetops. Bilbo could hear the goblins beginning a horrible song, and with that the flames were under Gandalf the wizards tree. In a moment it caught the others and went up like a rocket, when it was just beneath Bilbo’s, he closed his eyes, ready to die when...” As it can be seen Biblo and company were in many tight spots throughout this adventure, and he could not have done it all on his own. That is where Bilbo had to use the three themes of luck, courage and good sense to overcome evil and stay alive.…

    Life has its challenges, and savior figures are here to make those challenges easier. In The Hobbit, J. R. R. Tolkien puts in savior figures to show that if one is lucky enough to get saved, they must learn from their experiences and be prepared to help others. Gandalf, Elrond, and Bard are all savior figures because, among other attributes, they are compassionate, courageous, and wise and because of them, Bilbo becomes faithful and unselfish.…

    One will learn more about the nature of hobbits and dwarves, wizards and elves, one will infer more about Gollum and why Bilbo’s meeting with him was so important in the event of the lord of the rings, in addition, they essentially follow the same story line and that is one reason to read the hobbit first. Another thing is that Tolkien wrote in a style that is a bit more formal and more intellectual than most modern fiction writers. Also reading the hobbit first before reading Lord of the Rings has enriched my interpretation because now that I have read some of Tolkien’s writing I know his style and what he is lecturing about. I have this image in my head when he starts talking about a character I know what character he is talking about as well as how the character acts. Moreover, I’m conversant with his process of thinking and I am not confused about his book, then if I just read Lord of the rings and knew nothing about the author and his writing…
