For the first time ever, a beautiful slipcased edition of the forerunner to The Lord of the Rings , illustrated throughout in colour by J.R.R. Tolkien himself, with the complete text printed in two colours and with many bonus features unique to this edition. The Silmarilli were three perfect jewels, fashioned by Fëanor, most gifted of the Elves, and within them was imprisoned the last Light of the Two Trees of Valinor. But the first Dark Lord, Morgoth, stole the jewels and set them within his iron crown, guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. The Silmarillion is the history of the rebellion of Fëanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all the heroism, against the great Enemy. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part. The book also includes several shorter works: the Ainulindalë , a myth of the Creation, and the Valaquenta , in which the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings . This deluxe slipcased edition contains the complete text, which is printed in two colours and features, for the very first time, more than 50 colour paintings, illustrations and designs drawn by J.R.R. Tolkien himself as he composed this epic work. Unique to this edition are two poster-size, fold-out maps revealing all the detail of Beleriand as the tales grew, an illustrated booklet featuring 'A Brief Account of The Silmarillion and its Making' by Christopher Tolkien, and a printed art card reproducing 'Taniquetil'. It is additionally quarterbound with raised ribs on the spine, stamped in three foils on black cloth boards, and housed in a custom-built clothbound slipcase. The pages are edged in silver and include a ribbon marker.

This is our go-to shoes for our kids
Size: 12 Little Kid, Color: Grey/Silver/Pink
I have been buying these shoes for my two toddler girls for a few years now. They are not cheap but they use good quality material. The only downside is the velcro closure is not that great compared to the rest of the shoe. The velcro becomes weak or not as sticky well before the shoe has run its course. They come in a variety of colors which is fun for the kids. One of my daughters has sensitive fee or just fine shoes generally uncomfortable and she never has a problem with these. I also love that they're available in half sizes. And I find them to be true to size

Easy on and off
I’m a big fan of Sauconys so I wanted to introduce my daughter to my love of sneakers. These are good shoes and they’ve held up well. They show a lot of dirt but they’re worn by a toddler so I guess that’s expected. They’re lightweight so my daughter can easily walk in them. My only complaint is the length of the Velcro fastener. We use thin socks and the fastener barely goes halfway across the shoe. It just looks odd to me. Otherwise, it’s a great shoe. I’ll definitely buy more.

Cute shoes for new walkers
Great shoes for new walkers, with a sturdy heel cup and flexible sole, and super easy to get on/take off. The fit is a bit on the narrow side, so recommend checking the size chart. Great colors too! We've bought multiple pairs in different sizes and have always been happy.

Great shoe: 5th pair purchased!
I love these shoes! They fit true to size and never wear out. Both of my girls have worn these exclusively from 9 months through kindergarten. My oldest just learned to tie laces and that’s the only reason I’m moving her on to different shoes. These are stylish and they grow out of them before the tread even begins to show wear. Additionally, unlike cheap sneakers from Walmart or Target the Velcro holds strong despite a year of use by two different children.

Great purchase!
My child is 14 months and has been on the move for a long time, these shoes are so great, he moves great in them and never has a problem wearing them! They are slightly narrow so the strap doesn’t go all the way, but has never come undone!
