Viac o knihe

Enchanted by a sand-sorcerer, the toy dog Roverandom explores a world filled with strange and fabulous creatures; the fat and unheroic Farmer Giles of Ham is called upon to do battle with the dragon Chrysophylax; Hobbits, princesses, dwarves and trolls partake in the adventures of Tom Bombadil; Smith of Wootton Major journeys to the land of Faery via the magical ingredients of a giant cake; and Niggle the painter sets out to paint the perfect tree. The definitive collection of J.R.R. Tolkien's acclaimed short stories and poems affirms his status as a master storyteller for readers young and old, and its accompanied for the first time with delightful illustrations by Alan Lee.
