The Hobbit
Chapter 2- Roast Mutton

1. When Bilbo woke up in the morning and the dwarves were gone he was relieved that they had left without him but he was also a little up set that they had left a big mess that he would have to clean. Plus they didn’t even bother to wake him up and say thank you. Bilbo surprising felt a little disappointed for missing out on a great adventure. 2. Bilbo finds out that the dwarves are waiting for him when Gandalf shows up at his door and directs him to the letter under the clock on the mantelpiece that was left by the dwarves. 3. Bilbo was concerned when he raced off to meet the dwarves because he left his hat, walking stick and money, which would be everything that he would usually take when he went out. Bilbo had forgotten his pocket-handkerchief but Gandalf brought it to him when he caught up to Bilbo and the dwarves. 4. When the party sets out it was May but they were carrying on through June. 5. When the party notices that there is a light in the forest they know that there was a fire they could dry their clothes on and they want to see if there is more food for them to eat. They all were miserable because they were wet and cold from the rain, they were hungry because they had little food and they hadn’t started a fire yet. 6. A hobbits natural trait of moving quickly and quietly would be great value to a burglar. 7. When Bilbo showed up the trolls were arguing about how they haven’t had a satisfying meal in a long time, just mutton every day, since William convinced them to moves to those parts of the woods. 8. When Bilbo gets close he sees the trolls, at first he want to go warn the dwarves but then he thought that a legendary burglar would pick one of the troll’s pockets. So that’s what Bilbo does, he tries to pick Williams pockets and gets caught. 9. The trolls plan on eating Bilbo and they get caught up in arguing about how they would cook him. Later they decide to let him go. 10. The dwarves

    By the end of this expedition, he will have changed almost everything about him and how he lives everyday life. At the beginning of the story, Bilbo was kind, but was also extremely contempt with his way of life. He wanted nothing more than to “ eat meals six times a day” (Tolkien 5). But by the end of the expedition he had learned to make it through with what he has; and to also put himself in danger for the sake of others “killing of the giant spider, all alone by himself in the dark”( Tolkien 135). By defeating the giant spider he showed to himself and others that he is willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of others. Therefore showing that the expedition in its entirety has changed him…

    Throughout the whole movie the communication was maintained in certain ways, Gandalf always had hope on Bilbo because he knew him since a young age. As mention before about the mark on Bilbo’s door; Gandalf set it there because he needed to have the conference with the dwarves about the adventure. This communication was maintained by all the dwarves showing at Bilbo’s front door, then making a big feast leaving Bilbo with scrapes of food.

    Bilbo was sent by the dwarves to investigate a strange fire in the forest, quietly. When he reached the fire, he saw it was three very large persons sitting around a very large fire of beech-logs, they were trolls. At this point Bilbo had the chance to have gone back quietly and warned his friends about the trolls but he felt the need to do a bit of good quick burgling to impress the dwarves. “He wished himself a hundred miles away-yet somehow he could not go straight back to Thorin and Company emptyhanded.” But not all ended well for poor Mr. Baggins’ as it took Gandalf to save Bilbo and the dwarves from the…

    In J.R.R Tolkien’s ‘The Hobbit’, the protagonist Bilbo Baggins embarks on a journey of discovery through the world outside his insular home that leads to a renewed perception of himself and others at the conclusion of the story. Much like in ‘Mending Wall’, Baggins is a member of an insular community, where traditions are strongly held, “We are plain quiet folk and have no use for adventures”. This ongoing thought process is similar to the opposing neighbour, leading to Bilbo’s rejection of the world outside his home of the Shire. Similarly to ‘Stopping by Woods…’ Bilbo faces a chance to leave, “As they sang the Hobbit fell in love……

    Starting out on a new adventure was different for this hobbit, not only different but foreign. Mr. Baggins starts this tale not even interested in Gandalf's plan. Bilbo does not travel at all, or at least not as much as this journey was calling for. To set out in this journey he was going to have to face an unheard of danger, something he would eventually become accustomed to throughout the novel.…
