It is firmly believed by the creme de la creme of
Tolkien scholars that Beladonna Took was specifically
added by Tolkien for his daughter Priscilla and that
he may have added a curse in Gothic [said into a dictaphone]
to anyone who would dare
esteem Beladonna less highly then any foul
creature encountered by Bilbo (see the long lost
unpublished essay What Tollers really told me about the
writing of The Hobbit that I didn't get around to including
in my biography of him
by H. Carpenter).

Belladonna Took must be saved!!!
