NOTES
Unabridged
The definitive collection of J.R.R.Tolkien's four acclaimed modern classic fairy tales, each reflecting an aspect of what Tolkien himself called "The Perilous Realm of Faerie." The fat and unheroic Farmer Giles of Ham is called upon to do battle with the dragon Chrysophylax; Niggle the painter sets out to paint the perfect tree in Leaf by Niggle; hobbits, princesses, dwarves and trolls partake in The Adventures of Tom Bombadil; and Smith of Wootton Major journeys to the Land of Faery via the magical ingredients of a giant cake
