Roverandom by JRR Tolkien J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy story about the adventures of a bewitched toy dog, written before The Hobbit. While on holiday in 1925, four-year-old Michael Tol kien lost his beloved toy dog on the beach at Filey in Yorkshire. To console him, his father, J.R.R.Tolkien, improvised a story about Rover, a real dog who is magically transformed into a toy and is forced to seek out the wizard who wronged him in order to be returned to normal. Now, the adventures of Rover - or, for reasons that become clear in the story, 'Roverandom' - are published in this delightful pocket hardback edition.[shortcode] [short-description] • A fantasy story about the adventures of a bewitched toy dog• A delightful pocket hardback edition [/short-description][details] Published by HarperCollins Publishers Written in English Hardback book144 pages ISBN 9780007523283Book measures 15.1x11cm [/details] [/shortcode] Show more
