A Host of Holidays!

Happy Hobbit Day, everyone! Today is the birthday of both Bilbo Baggins and Frodo Baggins, of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy respectively. So use this day to catch up on your Middle-Earth lore, and read some Tolkien! We have a Tolkien display set up in the Children's Department for your browsing convenience.

















This past week has also seen two other interesting holidays: Talk Like a Pirate Day, and the birthday of one of our favorite (and smartest) literary characters, Hermione Granger! To view a list of other strange and interesting holidays, click here.
