The Hobbit (Last part!!!!)

I have finish the book The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien. It is soooooo good! I can't wait to read The Lord of the Rings books.

The adventurers slowly get out of the tunnel after the dragon has been gone for days. They wonder to the place where all of the gold and treasure is. They barely dare to touch anything! Is the dragon gone for good?! Bilbo looks around and sees a huge jewel. He takes it without telling the others. They go outside to a lookout nearby. They stay there for a couple days hoping that they won't starve.

Suddenly, giant eagles come up the Bilbo and the dwarves. He tells them that the dragon is dead!! The adventurers are amazed! How did it happen?? The Eagle said that the dragon went to attack a town of dwarves nearby. One of the dwarves shot an arrow at the dragon's left side, where the dragon had no scales. Now the dragon is dead, but the eagle has some bad news. The other dwarves and elves found out and are coming to attack Bilbo and the others! They want the gold and silver! Thorin sends out the eagles to bring his cousin and his army to help them.

 The attackers came up to the mountain and made it where nobody could go in or out. It is like that for several days! They just want some of the gold to pay for the town that the dragon trashed, but Thorin won't give any! He is being very stubborn, and Bilbo can't handle it! He puts on his magic ring at the dead of night. He goes out of the mountain and sneaks past the guards. He goes up to the head elves and dwarves. He takes off his ring and talks to them a long time. Bilbo gives them the big jewel that he took earlier. He tells them that they can take that to rebuild their city.

Bilbo goes back to the mountain. Later that day, the elves and the other dwarves go up to Thorin. They all make up, but Thorin is really mad at Bilbo for giving it to them. He doesn't necessarily like Bilbo that much anymore! Suddenly, Thorin's cousin and his army come up. Thorin thinks that they don't need them anymore, but then one of the other eagles comes up. The eagle tells them that goblins are on their way! Looks like a war!

The goblins come up shortly, and the war began. Bilbo chickened out and put on his ring. At least he can be a little more safe! During the war though, he gets knocked out(it seems like that happens a lot to him)! When he wakes up, the war is over. He doesn't know if they won or not! He wonders around and finds Gandalf (who came during the war from a wizard meeting when he sensed something was wrong). He is very surprised and happy. He finds out that they WON THE WAR!


Gandalf shows him Thorin. He had tons of injuries, and he's about to die. Bilbo and him talk for a long time. The Bilbo leaves very sad. Two of the other dwarves died during the battle too. Bilbo's journey was over. He stayed a couple more days. Then he headed home with Gandalf. Now Bilbo has lots of gold, and most of all, he SURVIVED! He's home at last(or until another adventure comes his way!)

A connection that I have with this last part of the book has to do with Thorin and the two dwarves dying. This kind of reminds me how sometimes to make something good happen, bad things have to happen too. This is like how for us Christians to be able to go to Heaven, Jesus had to die for us.

A question that I have for this last part of the book is Why would Bilbo's neighbors not like him anymore after he gets home? Whenever Bilbo gets back home, he isn't respect anymore. I think that the others might not like Bilbo as much anymore because he's different. A lot of people treat others different because they're different.

I predict that Bilbo will have many other adventures later on. I think this will happen because he is a lot more adventurous than before this adventure. He is up to anything now!!!!!!
