Call it a CliffsNotes, not Cliff Note or Cliffs Note. If you're looking for the original literature study guide series, then you've come to the right place.
The Hobbit

The Hobbit

J.R.R. Tolkien

CliffsNotes on The Hobbit opens as the wizard Gandalf visits hobbit Bilbo Baggins and invites him on an adventure. Bilbo reluctantly agrees to leave his comfy hobbit-hole and go with Gandalf and a band of dwarves. The journey takes them through forests, across enchanted lakes, and over mountains, where Bilbo encounters trolls, goblins, a dragon, and treasure. J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit is simplistic in some ways, and yet in others reflects the complexity of human experience.
