J.R.R Tolkien: A Life

This is a book written for a young audience about the life and story of J.R.R. Tolkein, the man who wrote so much, so well, for so many of us. The story of his beginnings, his middle and his end. A story of an ordinary man who did extraordinary things. A story of mothers and fathers, sons and daughters. A story of God, religion, happiness, suffering, friendship and genius. Oh, and the story of the The Lord of the Rings, which in spite of what some people might say, is considered by many if not most of us to be one of the greatest books ever written.
