A precious letter that J.R.R. Tolkien wrote to an 8-year-old boy in 1961 is predicted to fetch £10,000 ($12,730) at auction.
“The Lord of the Rings” author penned the note to a boy named Christopher Howard, who had written to him after his mother read “The Hobbit” to him and his brother Nicky.
“My mother was an English teacher who would read bedtime stories to my younger brother and I, and when we were aged 6 and 8, she started reading ‘The Hobbit’ to us,” Mr. Howard, a renewable energy consultant from Wye, near Canterbury, Kent, said.
