Child,

Can I ask you for a bibliography of sorts?

Mith, your statement that Pauline Baynes illustrated your childhood rang very true with me.

Several years ago she was involved with a fundraiser for an animal charity near her home and I was fortunate to acquire one of her signed copies of Bilbo's Last Song. It is one of my favorites.
