1. The Hobbit or so called There and Back Again, is about a hobbit who goes on an unexpected journey with dwarfs, and a wizard to take back the dwarfs mountain called Arabor, but soon the dwarfs, hobbit and the wizard will encounter frightful things on the way there.
2. The theme in The Hobbit is taking a leap of faith. Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who sits around and ear dinner everyday by himself, and waiting for his life to passl by. But soon when The Wizard called Gandalf, he is reluctant to join an "unexpected journey" because he is very cautious about leaving his belongings behind him. Don't be the person sitting on the bench, go out there and see what you can do.
3.Based on the tone the author gives to the character, Bilbo would be a morning person, waking up early, drinking tea, cleaning his house, and waiting for the mail to come to his porch. Because in in the other lord of the rings, hobbit are usually lazy, and friendly, and like to eat and have feasts, In addition, Bilbo may be solving riddles since hobbits are really impressive with riddles.
4 In The Hobbit, the simile I came across was on Pg.1 it says "The door opened on to a tubed shape hall like a tunnel. As for a metaphor, in chapter 9, it says "there the great tree beeches came right down to the bank, till there feet were in the stream. I couldn't spot an allegory in the book, but i did find a personification on page 65 " It burned with rage that made it gleam if goblins were about"....
The way the author used his words is to make the reader imagine the things he made up. He uses so much description that you can already see the character in your mind when the reader is reading the passage.
