De luxe boxed gift set of Tolkien's most popular and charming stories, full of wit and humour, collected together for the first time on unabridged CD. This boxed set of 8 CDs contains the following 5 unabridged works, all read by Sir Derek Jacobi, and are suitable for both adults and children alike: Letters from Father Christmas comprises a festive unabridged reading of the letters. Interspersed with carols and seasonal music. With John Moffatt and Christian Rodzka in supporting roles as Polar Bear and Ilbereth the Elf, this perennial Christmas classic is filled with humour. Farmer Giles of Ham is one of Tolkien's most popular stories, full of wit and humour, set in the days when giants and dragons walked the earth. Farmer Giles did not look like a hero. He was fat and red-bearded and enjoyed a slow, comfortable life. Then one day a rather deaf and short-sighted giant blundered on to his land! Roverandom is a real dog who is magically transformed into a toy and is forced to seek out the wizard who wronged him in order to be returned to normal. The story was written to console Tolkien's four-year-old son, Michael, who lost a beloved toy dog on the beach. Smith of Wootton Major tells of the preparation of the Great Cake to mark the Feast of Good Children and the magical events which follow. Leaf by Niggle recounts the strange adventures of the painter, Niggle.
