Description:
In 1925, while on vacation with his family on the Yorkshire coast, four-year-old Michael Tolkien lost his toy dog. His father, J.R.R. Tolkien improvised the story of Rover, a real dog magically transformed into a toy, to console him. This charming tale, peopled by a terrible dragon, a wise old whale, the king of the sea and the Man-in-the Moon, was put aside. After more than seventy years, Roverandom, a story rich in wit and wordplay and filled with thrilling and humorous events, was published to the will delight of all who love a rollicking good yarn.
