## Description

Roverandom tells the story of Rover, a young dog turned into a toy by an angry wizard, whose search for his true shape takes him to the Moon, where he meets the Moon-dog, and to the depths of the sea, where he meets the Sea-dog. Tolkien first told the tale in 1925 to console his son Michael, who had lost his toy dog on a beach.
