8. Amy 2025 Addison Way Glenview, IL 30253 March 28, 2012 Dear Liza, Lately you have been talking about how bored you have been. I have just the solution for you. You should read The Hobbit by Tolkien. This book has interesting characters. Bilbo Baggins is the main character. You will love him. He is brave and very smart too. Another interesting character is a wizard , Gandalf. Gandalf is really the one that gets Bilbo to leave home and to become a hero. The Hobbit is a book full of adventure, and I know you like adventure stories. Bilbo crosses over a mountain range called The Misty Mountains, and he fights with trolls and nasty spiders. Deep in the heart of a dark cave, he finds a magic ring that makes him invisible when he wears it. Can you imagine what you could do with a magic ring that makes you invisible? Read this story today. The characters are great and the adventures will entertain you. Hugs, Amy
