Thank you to all the parent and teacher volunteers who helped to make the fair such a huge success. Cake Decorating National Competition Winner When I was only seven, my mother started to make and decorate birthday cakes, she grew in knowledge and skills and is now known world wide. This year my mother encouraged me to take part in a competition taking place in Birmingham. Little did I know the compition required the very best skills. When I started off, it was only three weeks before the competition and I had no idea what to do, I finally decided to make a dragon cake. I watched the Hobbit and I realised that Smaug would be an interesting and difficult character to bring to life in cake form. I thought it was going to be easy and after a week of moulding and sculpting the head the dragon began to look realistic. During the second week I started to paint the dragon using a aerograph, this was very tricky especially as I wanted to get the shading right. When I had finished I was amazed by the outcome. In the final week I put a lot of thought into the eyes and how I would make them come to life. I thought that using isomalt would give me the effect that I wanted. Moulding the eyes was very difficult and challenging. When completed the cake was carefully transported to the comepetition where it was judged against all the other entries. On the Saturday morning I waited for the results to be revealed. My name was called and my family cheered. Smaug in cake form can be viewed in the AVA’s reception. I am coming for you Paul Hollywood!

Additionally, we were invited to ambassador training where we did few role plays based on bullying and studied the meaning, the cause and the effect what it is like to be bullied constantly. Not only did we learn about what bully- ing means but also the sudden changes that a bully can bring into their lives.

Despite this, the resurrection of Jesus encourages us that even in the darkness of death, there is hope, and as disciples of Jesus we are called to be harbin- gers of hope amidst present pain and conflict. The lengths to which God has gone to recon- cile the world to Himself shows us the im- portance God places on making peace between those in conflict. If we are to share in this min- istry of reconciliation, we need to acknowledge that to be peacemakers is a cost- ly affair.

  • Starkin a Thesis Presented for the Master of Arts in Creative Writing
    Starkin A Thesis Presented for the Master of Arts in Creative Writing Degree The University of Tennessee, Chattanooga Rebecca W. Miller March 20 Copyright 2010 by Rebecca W. Miller All rights reserved. Acknowledgment I would like to say thank you to all the professors at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga who helped me complete my thesis. Sybil Baker, Thomas Balazs, Earl Braggs, Joyce Smith and many others have helped influence my writing for the better over the last few years. I appreciate the opportunity to work with them to realize my dream of completing my master‘s degree. Also, I could not have survived the trials of graduate school along with my full-time job if it were not for the endless support of my friends and family. I am very happy that I could count on Mom, Dad, Alex, Grandma, Fundy, Crystal and Holly to give me their full support as well as a kick in the pants when needed. Abstract In traditional fantasy novels, as established with J.R.R. Tolkien‘s Lord of the Rings, the main character embarks on a heroic journey. As defined by Joseph Campbell, who was the author, editor and translator of books on mythology such as The Hero with a Thousand Faces a heroic journey is an epic quest that leads the hero physically to an internal rebirth. Within Campbell‘s study of the monomyth, using those conventions outlined by Campbell, I will show how Tolkien elements uses Campbell‘s conventions in Middle Earth, where a simple young hobbit ends up saving his world.

  • Readers' Guide
    Readers’ Guide for by J.R.R. Tolkien ABOUT THE BOOK Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit— a hairy-footed race of diminutive peoples in J.R.R. Tolkien’s imaginary world of Middle-earth — and the protagonist of The Hobbit (full title: The Hobbit or There and Back Again), Tolkien’s fantasy novel for children first published in 1937. Bilbo enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling any farther than his pantry or cellar. He does not seek out excitement or adventure. But his contentment is dis- turbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an adventure. They have launched a plot to raid the treasure hoard guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. Bilbo reluctantly joins their quest, unaware that on his journey to the Lonely Mountain he will encounter both a magic ring and a frightening creature known as Gollum, and entwine his fate with armies of goblins, elves, men and dwarves. He also discovers he’s more mischievous, sneaky and clever than he ever thought possible, and on his adventure, he finds the courage and strength to do the most surprising things. The plot of The Hobbit, and the circumstances and background of magic ring, later become central to the events of Tolkien’s more adult fantasy sequel, The Lord of the Rings. “One of the best children’s books of this century.” — W. H. AUDEN “One of the most freshly original and delightfully imaginative books for children that have appeared in many a long day .

    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 16, 2020 A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF J.R.R TOLKIEN’S THE HOBBIT AND IT’S FILM ADAPTATION T. Gokulapriya1, Dr. S. Selvalakshmi 1Ph D Scholar in English Dept, Karpagam Academy of Higher Education, Coimbatore, India 2Professor & Head, Department of English , Karpagam Academy of Higher Education ,Coimbatore, India E-mail: [email protected] 1, [email protected] Received: 14 March 2020 Revised and Accepted: 8 July 2020 ABSTRACT: Every human being has the power of imagination, which most people use to think about life and make plans for their future. But, mostly, they do not think beyond the real world. Only a few people like novelists and scientists give more importance to their creativity. In fantasy novels, imaginative power is the key element to unlock a story which is stored in the mind. The author gives soul to the story with his imagination. J.R.R. Tolkien, a well-known twentieth century British writer, has used his incomparable imaginative power to create a new world ‗Middle-Earth‘ and a new creature like hobbit, a fictional character. ―In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit‖ (The Hobbit 3). Tolkien created Middle-Earth and fictional characters inspired by Anglo- Saxon literature when he was working as a professor of English Language and Literature in Merton College, Oxford. I. INTRODUCTION Fantasy has become a major area of profit-making fiction. Tolkien‘s The Hobbit is inscription on behalf of both kids and adult readers. The Hobbit is a fantasy novel influenced by the myths and languages of Northern European literature.
