I read the hobbit when I was in grade 4 or something. One of my really good friends introduced me to the existance of the lord of the rings, and I saw about half of FOTR this past september, I just finished the movie a few months ago and have watched it at least 6 times since. It was this LOTR musical I was trying out for (I was auditioning for the part of Pippin) that got me to read FOTR (which, might I add, was REALLY boring!!). Antien introduced me to the Barrow-downs.
