Roverandom is a charming little book. When and if I have children that will be the first bedtime story I read to them, followed by The Hobbit. I do recommend reading it, but of course, any Tolkien nerd will want to.

The first Tolkien book I read was The Hobbit, of course. My grandmother got the EEs for my father one Christmas and I really liked them. When my friend came over and started complaining about inaccurate they are I decided that reading the books would be a fantastic idea. Now I have one shelf of a bookcase dedicated to Tolkien (except my first box set, that has a special place on my bed), and that isn't enough books. D:
