For Christmas last year, my kids both got a copy of the S[tar Wars Trilogy Graphic Novel](https://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Original-Trilogy-Graphic/dp/1484737849/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1512494231&sr=1-1&keywords=star+wars+graphic+novel). It has been a blast to read and re-read. My son has been reading Luke’s lines this read through and we’ve loved it. For Christmas this year, I have ordered my son and daughter(ages 9 and 7) t[his copy of The Hobbit graphic novel.](https://www.amazon.com/Hobbit-Illustrated-Fantasy-Classic/dp/0345445600/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1512494168&sr=8-1&keywords=the+hobbit+graphic+novel)I thought it might be a fun way to introduce them to the Hobbit. Is there no Lord of the Rings edition, even if each book comes separate? If it was well done, I thought it might be fun to read for myself and fun for them as well. I’m surprised no one has made one in all the years it has been around. ---
