my mother had the Hobbit on vidio for the longest time till my dad recorded some horrable concert over it. but other than that the book were in my house for long before i was borne(my mother says that when she was young, the 60's she was looking for anything grey because she was obsesed with elves) just to say the least i got into Narnia and then Tolkien and also i got into Terry Brooks. that lead me to the Brothers Hildebrant and finally full circle back to Tolkien. but we can all attribute this to my mother and that old cartoon.
