1st Time

When I was about 9 I saw a little of the animated movie I found it very dull and never even learned the name until much later. When I was 11 my dad read the Hobbit and LotR to me and my sibs. I thought it was the coolest story ever. The next year I read it for myself and found it even better because I hadn't understood parts of it before. I've read LotR about every six months since then and the Hobbit countless times. My younger sibs are just getting into ME and every time I see a copy of any of the books lieing around I just can't help picking it up and reading parts of it. I've delayed my re-reading lately because I wanted to read it right before the first movie comes out.
