Welcome to the Abiator's modest The Hobbit plot summaries pages.
Here you will find brief summaries of each chapter of this great book written by 5AB.
These chapter summaries are NOT intended to be detailed. Quite the opposite, in fact. Each chapter summary contains what the Year 5 students of 5AB thought were the MAIN plot elements.

We also drew some cool pictures to go with each of our chapter summaries. A sample of this work is included with each chapter summary.

    [16] A Thief in the Night

    Bilbo wants all the problems to be solved between Thorin and the woodelves and Bard so he sneaks away one night and gives the Arkenstone to Bard. He tells Bard to use it in his bargaining with Thorin.

    Bilbo returns to the dwarves because he is still their loyal friend.

    Before Bilbo leaves the camp of the woodelves and men, Gandalf reappears and congratulates him on his actions.
