The book “The Hobbit, or There and Back Again” by the world-famous English writer John Ronald Ruel Tolkien rightfully is considered a classic of 20th-century children’s literature. The incredible adventures of its hero Bilbo Baggins and his friends can make a child laugh and become emotional, and also make the child think about many important things. For several decades, the story of a small group’s journey full of dangers to their cherished goal has captivated the imaginations of both children and adults. Thanks to the first-class—already classic—translation by Natalia Leonidovna Rakhmanova, the amazing world of Tolkien’s heroes will open before readers in all its fullness and many colors.
