Mythology by Edith Hamilton
“A wonderful collection of
myths and legends of the
Greeks and Romans”
The first movie of The Hobbit... how did it compare to the book? Did you love it? Hate it? Is there a book that you wish they would make into a movie? Tell us what you think for the next POW! issue: [email protected]
If you lived in Middle Earth, would
you rather be a hobbit, a dwarf, an elf, a wizard, a troll, or an orc?
Explain why and send it to POW! for the
next issue. Photo: http://xiphos71.deviantart.com/art/The-Hobbit-Map-306954895
