Synopsis
In 1925, four-year-old Michael Tolkien lost his beloved toy dog on the beach. To console him, his father, J.R.R. Tolkien, improvised a story about Rover, a real dog who is magically transformed into a toy and is forced to seek out the wizard who wronged him in order to be returned to normal. This charming tale, peopled by a sand-sorcerer and a terrible dragon, by the king of the sea and the Man-in-the-Moon, endured several drafts over the years. Now, more than seventy years later, the adventures of Rover are published for the first time. Rich in wit and wordplay, Roverandom is edited and introduced by Christina Scull and Wayne G. Hammond and illustrated with Tolkien's own delightful drawings., "Roverandom" recounts the tale of a little dog who is magically transformed into a toy and has many fantastic adventures in search of the wizard who wronged him. Illustrations.

I decided to buy the book as a friend for my friend who wants to be a third or fourth grade teacher and wanted start reading more children's books for the future, I chose to buy this book for her because it was one of the first tolkien books I ever read and got me basically hooked on his writing. It got a great, responce and I also got a few pages read out of it too.
