LOL. Clever use of 'drought,' ending in an errant hobbit getting drownded (a fate quite suitable in a hobbitish cautionary tale)!

Thank you - I am enjoying writing cautionary tales for hobbits a great deal!

I want a set of these stories in the "little golden book" format!

If I was a good artist they would be fun to illustrate!

'Drowned to death' - poor hobbit! I'm enjoying these cautionary tales. No wonder they stayed put in the Shire!

Good little hobbits took notice - although it is quite possible that Took little hobbits took less....

You do sort of wonder how they ever found out about all those horrible deaths if nobody ever comes back to report what happened to them...
Or rather I would if I were a little hobbit!

Ah - that sort of thinking shows that you are the very sort of little hobbit who would come to no good end!

Thank you! It was fun to write - I had thoughts of it being an adaptation of a tale once heard, of Frodo crossing the Ford of Bruinen and then the water crashing down on the Nazgul; adapted to educate and inform!
