So I read the hobbit to my 7 year old and his favorite part was Gollum. He spent the next week going around asking “what’s in your pocketses?” We just watched The Hobbit and he was nearly in tears when Gollum got left behind without the ring.

Gollum represents the devastating effects of addiction and obsession with things which are inappropriate for one's nature. So maybe the kid would like Faulkner?

You must have gone too hard when you were reading the gollum parts. You made gollum come alive off the page. You are a fantastic story teller.

The OP now needs to adopt a full Gollum lifestyle- sparse stringy haircut, raw fish, cave, etc. Anything less will cause profound psychological harm to their child by destroying their sense of wonder.

Is your kid the annoying one in school? Maybe they understand and viewpoint of the annoying character best and use that as their point of view character. You can look forward to favorites Scappy Doo, and Jar Jar Binks. But C3PO or R2D2 would be the most annoying characters from New Hope and they are fun. Show the kid New Hope.

I really wish they included The Scouring of the Shire at the end of the movies. It was my favourite part of all the books.

The books really should of ended with Gollum controlling middle earth with his precious and an iron fist.

I dunno, little dude just deserves it.

Mine will go around saying "MY PRECIOUS" which is weird because he's never seen the movie.
