This is similar to the classic poem The Saga of King Olaf, which tells of a king who is determined to reclaim the kingdom that was taken from him.]]> 2017-05-18 14:51:33 UTC https://padlet.com/teghan_mccartan/8darfqmxvo2a/wish/172601651 teghan_mccartan https://padlet.com/teghan_mccartan/8darfqmxvo2a/wish/172601808 I think that this song can connect to thew main character, Bilbo Baggins, because it tells of an adventure that is rare and very special, similar to the one that Bilbo goes on in the book. At first Bilbo hated the thought of adventure, but then another side of him emerged and he decided to go with the dwarves to reclaim their home.. He did not want to miss out on the adventure of a lifetime.]]> 2017-05-18 14:51:56 UTC https://padlet.com/teghan_mccartan/8darfqmxvo2a/wish/172601808 teghan_mccartan https://padlet.com/teghan_mccartan/8darfqmxvo2a/wish/172601922 The theme of the novel connects to this article because in the story, Bilbo steps out of his comfort zone and decides to go on an adventure, which in the end changes him drastically (in a good way) as a person.

This shows a new side of him that he discovered on their journey.]]> 2017-05-18 14:52:35 UTC https://padlet.com/teghan_mccartan/8darfqmxvo2a/wish/172602049 teghan_mccartan https://padlet.com/teghan_mccartan/8darfqmxvo2a/wish/172602155 The game Skyrim is similar to the novel because it has a similar setting to that of The Hobbit.
