The Hobbit - J. R. r. tolkien, Michael Hague

'Smaug certainly looked fast asleep, almost dead and dark, with scarcely a snore more than a whiff of unseen steam, when Bilbo peeped once more from the entrance. He was just about to step out onto the floor when he caught a sudden thin ray of red from under the drooping lid of Smaug's left eye. He was only pretending to sleep! He was watching the tunnel entrance!' Whisked from his comfortable hobbit-hole by Gandalf the wizard and a band of dwarves, Bilbo Baggins finds himself caught up in a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon... This edition of J.R.R. Tolkien's modern classic has been beautifully illustrated by artist Michael Hague, whose illustrations for The Wind in the Willows and other great works have earned him a devoted following and reputation. --back cover
