Hi, I’m Henry. I love reading (I always have a book in my hand, except when I’m eating dinner but that’s only because my mum won’t let me!), playing Minecraft and archery. I have a twin sister and a little sister who drive me kinda crazy but I love them anyway (shhh...don’t tell them that).

Last Christmas, I was given the ultimate gift - the entire box set of The Lord of the Rings book series. I couldn't be more thrilled to dive into this epic adventure and I have not been disappointed!

The Lord of the Rings has got everything you could ever want in a story: action, adventure, magic, friendship, and even some romance—if you’re into that kind of thing…which I’m not by the way.

The characters are all so cool and unique, but my favorite has to be Frodo. He's just a regular Hobbit, but he's so brave and determined to save Middle-earth from the evil Sauron. And Sam, his best friend, is so loyal and supportive. They make such a great team!

The magic in the story is really cool too. Gandalf is a wizard, and he can do all sorts of amazing things like create fireworks and fight off evil creatures. And the elves are so beautiful and powerful, they can shoot arrows and sing songs that make you feel like you're in another world. I also really liked the way the author, J.R.R. Tolkien created this whole new world for
