I see the LOTR as a Children's book as well as the Hobbit.

I disagree. I would say that it has no age limits. (What a cliché.)
The way of telling the story make tH and LotR different. The Hobbit is told lightly and quite plainly. In LotR the text includes lots of description and the events and some of the characters are much darker. The atmosphere is very different.
How is LotR children's book,
Essex? The fact(?) that most of us have read it first as children doesn't make it a children's book. Have you any better arguments?
