Penny S. and Mrrzy, I spent an hour last night searching fo rthe article and came up blank. I know it was written about two months ago and I'll keep looking for a copy for others to read.

Hollowfox, when I was in grade nine there was a teacher in grade eight who had The Hobbit club. It was supposed to be for the brighter kids: they would read the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings and write essays etc. about the books. My younger brother got the 10 page blurb about it and my Mom refused to let him join. She went through the description with a red pencil marking all the horrendous grammatical errors. I then went through it and corrected the inane, senseless errors and mistakes of plot and character. Anybody who started out in that Hobbit club with any enjoyment of the book would have come out of it hating it and terribly confused.
