Hobbit is a better choice for children than many of his other books. It makes a great read-aloud for kids 8 and up and read-alone for 10 or 11 and up. Kids under the age of 8 are likely to have a hard time with both vocabulary and language. Journey is available now.

Is The Hobbit an easy read?
I can only read a few pages at a time, and the language and vocabulary is not particularly difficult, but it is a very slow read. The book is divided into two parts, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. The first part is the story of Bilbo Baggins and his quest to find the One Ring, which is said to be the key to the world of Middle-earth.
It is told from the point of view of Gandalf the Grey, a wizard who has been sent by the King of Gondor to retrieve the Ring for the Dwarves. In the second part, we follow the adventures of Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin as they travel through the land of Mordor, the home of Sauron and the source of all evil and evil-doers.

Can a 11 year old read Lord of the Rings?
From personal experiences, I can that a child can be ready to begin reading the Lord of the Ring’s trilogy or the Hobbit as early as ten years old. After a few hundred pages, The Lord of the Rings author’s lengthy stories can become tiresome. Journey, the first book in The Hobbit trilogy, was published in 1937.
The book is set in Middle-earth and tells the story of Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit, and his quest to find the One Ring, which is said to hold the power to destroy the Dark Lord Sauron and bring peace and prosperity to the land of Mordor.

Is The Hobbit good for learning English?
It uses good grammar, good English usage, good writing style, good vocabulary, and is free from colloquialisms and slang, so it is a good book “for learning English.” The general tone of voice is soft–like a fairy tale, not like an action thriller.
