The narrator describes the wood elves as "Good People" who have became less wise, more suspicious, and more dangerous than high elves. The dwarves were captured by both types of elf. So using your knowledge about the dwarves time with each do you agree with this statement?Explain.

Sean S · Sean S

For about how long do you think Thorin and Co. had to stay in the kings castle?

Tiffany P · Tiffany P

The now-empty wine barrels made their way down the river, dwarves and a hobbit packed in some. So does anyone have an explanation as to how water did not crept through a lot or the barrels did not sink to the bottom of the lake? And are dwarves and elves the same height or are elves bigger because they drink...

Bilbo would you have put the ring on to slip by the elves? or would you take the chance of getting caught and locked up with you buddies!

Sean S · Sean S

What do you think might be the reason Gandalf left or what the pressing business is?

Ben R · Ben R

What was the message Bilbo was telling everyone? I think it was a way of escape, but then they started talking about treasure so I also think they were planning on stealing the elvs gold.What do you think.

Shannon M · Shannon M

Do you think that Gandalf knew of the avents that already happened and just wanted the dwarves to fight for themselves? And do you think that he knows of events in the future(after all,he is a wizard!)?

Ok........since everyone is saying that Bilbo's plan was kind of off. What would you have done in his place. What plan would you have come up with.

Ben R · Ben R

Do you think the elf-king ever leaves his throne to go outside?

Ben R · Ben R

Why do you think each of the dwarves was placed ina different of the palace?

Joella I · Joella I

How do you think Bilbo feels right now that he has to be the leader of the group,rescue them from their trials, and make all the decisions?

Joella I · Joella I

On page 162, what or how would you have felt if the dwarfs reacted in such a manner that the dwarfs acted when Bilbo rescued them?With all do respect, I probably would have just been sick and tired of all their ungratefullness and given up on them.

Joella I · Joella I

Reread page 165, did you already know that the plan Bilbo had was going to have a failure?Come on,be honest.I will tell you that I didn't know that there was anything wrong with his plan.

Morgan G · Morgan G

I don't know about you, but those elves seem pretty... ignorant... What are some good examples of advice they've ignored so far? (up to chapter 12, that is) I'm also curious to know wether or not these are foreshadowing... I mean, it kinda is, right? When someone says don't so something...

April T · April T

As you might have noticed, the dwarves respect Bilbo much more than they did at the beginning of the journey, including Thorin. Reasons for this would include: (a) The rescue from the spiders; and (b) The escape from the Wood-elves' king's imprisonment. On page 191, it says "He did not l...

Lindsay E · Lindsay E

when Bilbo was invisible for all that time in the kings prison how had he not found thorin?? Even if he was looking he could of thought of a better plan than what he thought of! He almost killed some of the dwarves!!

TJB · TJB

Do you think the dwarves could have escaped a different way than by the barrels? If so, how?

Meredith G · Meredith G

On page 175 it says, "They all thought their own shares in the treasure would suffer seriously if the Wood-elves claimed part of it, and they all trusted Bilbo. Just what Gandalf had said would happen, you see. Perhaps that was part of his reason for going off and leaving them." Do you thin...

Cheyanne C · Cheyanne C

who do you think would be the most powerful leader for this group! I would stick with Bilbo! -- Edited by Koolteecha at 20:52, 2007-12-12

Holly A · Holly A

The wood-elves and the other elves are really different. Who do you hold more respect for? (Or simply which one do you think is the coolest?)

Chloe V · Chloe V

Ok, so people are asking whether or not they think the ring has more behind it than just turning invisible, and Gandalf was like "Yes, it's very powerful". WELL Bilbo's having all of this "luck", getting the dwarves rescued and getting himself rescued and being in the right pla...

Isaac G · Isaac G

Really Really doubtful but do you think Bilbo could have snuck around in the dark without the ring I dont think so but he is really quiet.

Chad S · Chad S

What do you think that the elves would have done to them if Bilbo had not helped them escape the elves? What do you think would have happened to Bilbo if he had just left and not returned?

Amanda T · Amanda T

what do you think would happen if Bilbo was caught while stealing the keys from the butler?

Darilyn B · Darilyn B

is bilbo using the ring to often? do you think that some trouble could happen with this going on?

Andi W · Andi W

From pages 181 where the dialogue started to page 182 to the song, I would like you to tell me what all that really meant. I understand that Galion is the butler, but the rest of the people, where they ALL sending the barrels down the river? Was Gailon supposed to do it all or something? I really didn't catc...

TJB · TJB

Do you think the company and Bilbo could have escaped the forest if the Mirkwood elves never captured then in the first place? If you think they could have, then how?
