 J. R. R Tolkien  John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was an English

writer, poet, philologist, and universityprofessor, best known as the author of the

classic high fantasy works The Hobbit ,

The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion.

  Tolkien never expected his stories to

become popular, but by sheer accident, TheHobbit , which he had written some years

before for his own children, came in !"# to

the attention of $usan %agnall, an

employee of the &ondon publishing firm

'eorge (llen ) *nwin, who persuaded

Tolkien to submit it for publication.+-

   However, the book attracted adult readers

as well as children, and it became popular

enough for the publishers to ask Tolkien to

produce a se/uel.
