  1. The first time I ever learned about J.R.R Tolkien was when I was a kid in Nigeria in 2004. My dad bought a DVD of Lord of the Rings for me and my siblings to watch after he watched it during his trips abroad. We loved it, especially me as a young boy. I even loved the Hobbit movies when they came out decades later. It was only when I emigrated to Canada that I was able to buy the actual LotR books, including the Hobbit, and read them finally. Truly beautiful works of fiction😌 Because of Tolkien, I was able to discover other great fantasy authors and books like Robert E. Howard, Brandon Sanderson etc. Also,I had no idea Tolkien was an African! A son of the soil😯
