"The Hobbit" was possibly one of the first books ever heard by myself, and one of my first chapter books. The cover has now fallen off from overuse. I recieved a copy of LotR for my ninth (I think it was ninth) birthday, tried it, and stopped reading within the first page. But, when I heard that FotR was coming out as a movie, I hurridly read the book, and convinced my poor mother to read the entire trilogy to the rest of my family, which she actually did! And for an even bigger surprise, they all listened, even my Dad! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] I take pride in telling people that I've "converted," my family.
