Enid Blyton isn't really known in America, but if she'd written The Hobbit then the three Peter Jackson movies would certainly have put her on the map by now! I liked your snippet of a wizard at Kirrin Cottage. Now imagine the Five in Mordor, finding the ring before Sauron does, and outwitting the nasty Orcs at every turn. I can see the gollum trailing along with Julian, Dick, George and Anne; Timmy doesn't trust the gollum, so of course George doesn't either...<BR/><BR/>"Preciousssssss," the gollum said, batting his eyelids at Timmy as Julian, Dick, Anne and George dismounted from the ent at Ent Station.<BR/><BR/>"Grrr," said Timmy, his tail down.<BR/><BR/>"I say, old chap," said Julian in surprise. "Don't be that way. Just because the gollum is of lower class stock doesn't make him bad. We have to treat everyone equally, you know. Hey, Dick, go and tell that porter to bring our bags over here at the double."<BR/><BR/>"Well, I simply don't trust him," said George sullenly, staring defiantly at the gollum.<BR/><BR/>"I think he's rather sweet," said Anne.<BR/><BR/>"Preciousssssss," said the gollum, sidling up to her...<BR/><BR/>Keith<BR/>http://www.enidblyton.net/secretblogKeith Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08549218589941540582noreply@blogger.com
