In the Shire lived Bilbo Beggins, who, unlike other hobbits, had a taste for adventure. His friend, the wizard Gandalf, sent the dwarves to him. The wizard knew that only a hobbit could help them drive the dragon Smaug from Ereborg, the dwarves’ underground city.

Bilbo happily sets off. Together with the dwarves led by Thorin he experiences many adventures: they are attacked now by trolls, now by orcs, now by giant spiders. They have also been captured by the elves of Licholesh. And each time they are saved by the magic of Gandalf and the wit of Bilbo. The Hobbit also finds a spell to enter the Underworld.

In one cave, Bilbo finds the Ring of Omnipotence, which contains part of the soul of the evil Sauron. This ring can make him invisible. Gorloom, who has lost the ring, wants to kill Bilbo, but he escapes.

Bilbo manages to outwit Smaug and lure him out of the cave. The Bard archer kills the monster. Bilbo returns to the Shire rich and with the Ring of Power.
