I don't see children appreciating these stories as much as adults, but that's just me.

He may have had British citizenship, however he was born in Bloemfontein, South Africa. Great imagination. Also invented his own language.

always wondered what the "R.R." stood for . "The Simarillion" is one of the best books ever

Sourabh Mandhare, We prefer J.R.R. Tolkien to J.K. Rowling, but, to each their own.

Yes, he's from South Africa too. And was the man behind the Lord of the Rings trilogy too. He also fought in the First World War as well.

mermaidmessiah,
The estate is probably allowing this because if JRRT died in 1973 they only have 2 years left of copyright protection before the whole Tolkien catalogue enters the public domain .
Expect Disney to discover Sauron’s spare ring in 2024
