I remember the cover of my first The Hobbit book. I think I purchased it from one of those magazines at school where you could buy three books for a few dollars and everyone's books delivered on the same day like one gigantic bookworm Christmas in the spring. I'm pretty sure I still have my copy but one of the downsides of sorting your bookcase loosely by genre, book type, and height is that you really can't lay your hands on a book quickly when you want to write about it in the few moments you have before departing for the office. There is a chance it's with my sister. She liked The Hobbit too.
Today the Peter Jackson film premieres in New Zealand, and I'm pretty sure this will be on my viewing list.
