FOTR 7


Pg 126-149

            Sam and Pippin almost became a tree’s lunch when the four heroes decided to take a nap!  Frodo and Merry frantically ran back the way they came partially in fear but more to find help. They came across Tom Bombadil, the ‘master of nature’ in these parts. He happily agreed to free Frodo’s’ friends from the evil tree and by calm coaxing and some reasoning, got the two sleepyheads free of the trees ‘jaws’. The four of them followed Tom to his home and met his beautiful elf-wife Golden flower. They stayed in his house for quite a few days, telling jokes and songs and eating some delicious food. However, Frodo finally reasoned they should leave, and they sadly went, still fearing what lies ahead, for now they must venture through the barrow-downs; notoriously dangerous they are told. So much action and I am only on the fifth chapter!
