Review: If you are a fan of J.R.R Tolkien or just a jan of fantasy writing or fairy stories then this is a must read. This book is split into two parts. The first part is Tolkien talking about fairy tales/stories. It is an extremely insightful read and shows the depth of his knowledge of writing and the fantasy genre. The second part of this book 'Leaf By Niggle is a beautifully written short story by Tolkien. Niggle a man who enjoys painting, mainly leafs, he never gets to complete his picture but ends up on a journey. A very enjoyable read.

Review: I bought this for a copy of `Leaf by Niggle` which remains one of my favourite tales. However I was very impressed by the range of lesser known essays in here. Definetly worth a pop.

    Description: Repackaged to feature Tolkien's own painting of the Tree of Amalion, this collection includes his famous essay, 'On Fairy-stories' and the story that exemplifies this, 'Leaf by Niggle', together with the poem 'Mythopoeia' and the verse drama, 'The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth', which tells of the events following the disastrous Battle of Maldon. Fairy-stories are not just for children, as anyone who has read Tolkien will know. In his essay 'On Fairy-Stories', Tolkien discusses the nature of fairy-tales and fantasy and rescues the genre from those who would relegate it to juvenilia. The haunting short story, 'Leaf by Niggle', recounts the story of the artist, Niggle, who has 'a long journey to make' and is seen as an allegory of Tolkien's life. The poem 'Mythopoeia' relates an argument between two unforgettable characters as they discuss the making of myths. Lastly, and published for the very first time, we are treated to the translation of Tolkien's account of the Battle of Maldon, known as 'The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth'. Tree and Leaf is an eclectic, amusing, provocative and entertaining collection of works which reveals the diversity of J.R.R. Tolkien's imagination, the depth of his knowledge of English history, and the breadth of his talent as a creator of fantastic fiction.
