searching for strawberries the first spring that Frodo is living at Bag End.
P6. Donated bunny
from Rabidsamfan:
Sam being the one that the children go to after Bilbo has left, to listen to the
old stories, and get pig-a-back rides from, in “romps on the lawns and hayfields
of the Shire.”
P7. Donated bunny
from Katakanadian:
When Frodo's parents are brought ashore, one of them is still alive but
succumbs later (could be hours or days) due to lung damage/infection. What do
they say to Frodo? How does waiting for a death affect Frodo?
P8. As Bilbo prepares the room at Bag End that will be Frodo’s, he reflects
on how his life will change once the tween comes to live there.
P9. Donated bunny from Gayalondiel:
In “An Unexpected Party” (FOTR), the Dwarves all play instruments. Surely they
didn’t cart them all the way home to Erebor? Perhaps they are gathering dust in
Bag End? What if a certain young hobbit and his friends happened to find them?
P10. Donated bunny from Lindelea:
Has anyone raised the issue of what happened to Bilbo between the time he
left the infamous Birthday Party until he ended up in Rivendell? Did he wander
the paths of Mirkwood once more? Did he visit the Lonely Mountain?

Aromene - The Road not
Taken
Primsong -
Stone of Erebor
P11. At Bilbo’s famous Birthday Party, 11-year-old Pippin and
his friends are fascinated by Gandalf’s voluminous, billowing robes, and think
it great fun to run up, tug on the wizard’s robes, and dash away -- heedless of
any possible consequences.
12. The day after
Bilbo leaves the Shire, Merry stays at Bag End helping Frodo distribute Bilbo's
gifts and handle the crowds. That night, as Merry prepares for bed, he discovers
in his room the wrapped gift that Bilbo left for him.

crush on him

Before the Birthday Party, Bilbo has a seemingly-light conversation with the
Gaffer -- knowing that it will be the last time he ever speaks with his old
friend.
This bunny was adopted and raised by:
Glory Underhill;
Goodbye Gaffer
P15. Donated bunny from Mynelwood:
In both the book and the films Frodo is very close to Gandalf. His grief when
Gandalf falls is devastating. But...
In both the book and the films we never find out WHEN Frodo first met Gandalf.
How old was Frodo? What happened when they met? How long did they know each
other pre-quest? And since Gandalf is like Frodo's father in many ways, HOW did
they get so close? What bonded them so closely? What adventures and experiences
did they have?
