Okay, so there’s this dude named Bilbo Baggins, and he’s a hobbit, which means he’s short, likes snacks, and probably smells like buttered toast. He lives in a hole in the ground, but it’s a nice hole. Not like a worm hole. More like a fancy donut hole with furniture.

One day, this wizard Gandalf shows up like, “Surprise, adventure time!” and Bilbo’s like, “NOPE, I like tea and naps!”But then 13 dwarves come over and eat all his food (like, ALL of it), and suddenly Bilbo is hiking through mountains with a bunch of beardy guys looking for treasure guarded by a giant angry dragon named Smaug. (Side note: I think dragons are just flying lizards with gold addiction problems.)

They get into a bunch of trouble. Trolls try to eat them. Goblins chase them. Wolves howl a lot. There’s also a forest that’s like “LOL, you’re lost forever,” and Bilbo fights spiders as big as my cousin Pretzelzilla. I almost peed my salt.

OH! And he finds this magic ring that makes him invisible. He wins it in a game of riddles with a weird guy named Gollum who hisses a lot and should probably see a dentist.

Eventually, Bilbo sneaks into Smaug’s treasure cave and steals a cup (bold move, bread boy). Smaug gets super mad and breathes fire on a town like he's baking humans for dinner. Then some other people show up, everyone argues about gold, and then there’s a huge

battle with elves, dwarves, men, goblins, and a lot of yelling.

Some dwarves die (😭), Bilbo says goodbye, and walks home like, “Welp, that happened.”

Moral of the story: Even a small hobbit (or a pretzel like me) can be a hero. Also, always bring snacks on adventures. Or be the snack. Like me.

THE END. Now please don’t eat me. I'm famous. 🥨
