{{quote|''[[Where It All Began|In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit.]]
''Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.'' }}
 
The precursor to ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]''. '''''The Hobbit''''', or '''''There and Back Again''''', is also the story of Bilbo Baggins, a simple, respectable [[Hobbits|little person]] who is content with his sleepy life in [[Ghibli Hills|Hobbiton]] until a crafty old wizard named Gandalf and thirteen dwarves hijack him for a grand adventure to slay a dragon and win back a lost treasure, forcing him to grow out of his comfortable little world. Along the way he encounters merry elves, ferocious trolls, wicked goblins, giant spiders, and other fantastic characters and creatures before coming face to face with the terrible dragon himself.
