Bilbo's Last Song - Tapa blanda

While Bilbo embarks on his last journey to the West, his mind is cast back to his first big adventure, THE HOBBIT.

J.R.R TOLKIEN's beautiful poem is bought to life through Pauline Bayne's stunning illustrations. It's the perfect introduction to the epic fantasy series of THE HOBBIT and THE LORD OF THE RINGS for younger readers, and a real treat for all Tolkien fans.

Baynes' illustrations have been fully restored in this fantastic new edition, which is published to coincide with the film release of THE HOBBIT in autumn 2012.

"Farewell to Middle-earth at last,
I see the Star above your mast"

In this beautifully illustrated book written by J. R. R. Tolkien, we follow Bilbo Baggins, the Hobbit himself, on his last journey to the West. It is here that he composes his last song, while reflecting on this first great adventure, The Hobbit.

The two stories are told simultaneously throught the illustrations; the large illustrations follow Bilbo on his journey to the Grey Havens, while the smaller illustrations along the bottom of each page show Bilbo's adventure as described in The Hobbit.
