I listened to it on audio and read it between the second and third Lord of the Rings. 

I remember being in 6th grade and my friends had to read this for their book group and they all said it was boring. I guess if you are a 6th grader I could see it, but I was scared ever since of reading it. Now that I have, I have determined my classmates were crazy. This book is great and I recommend it.

“What do you mean? Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not, or that you feel good this morning, or that it is a morning to be good on?” -Gandalf

It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations, if you live near him. 

May your beard grow ever longer
