J.R.R. Tolkien's lifelong fascination with medieval texts and languages gave him a unique vision and endless inspiration for his tales, and his broad interests made possible his creation of faery worlds, as well as the cultures and characters that make his books engaging today.

I found this book a little difficult to read in that it is slow progressing. The topic of sign language and how it came to be is very interesting. I have to say I learned a lot about the history behind Thomas Gallaudet and all he did for the deaf community.

If you're a fan of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy but not a Tolkien scholar, Mythmaker should be a perfect fit. Along with the nuts and bolts of the life of an extraordinarily kind and talented author, professor, linguist, and philologist, the reader will find the inspiration for many of Middle Earth's iconic characters, creatures, and places. At 116 pages, this should fit the bill for school biography assignments, too. An Introduction, Index, and Writings by J.R.R. Tolkien are included. Reading Mythmaker will inspire a desire to rediscover the depth and grandeur of Middle Earth.

Born to a wealthy Austrian family, Joy Adamson felt disconnected from her mother; her father, disappointed that she wasn't a boy, was strict and emotionally removed as a parent. Eventually, her parents divorced and started new marriages. As a child Joy was athletic, loved the outdoors and animals. She was a gifted student who excelled at piano, art, and music.

Joy had safer and more trustful relationships with animals than with humans. She adopted and parented an orphaned lion cub (Elsa), with a parenting process called imprinting. She also parented a leopard and a cheeta, returning all these animals to the wild after much training and patience.

She spent most of her adult life in Kenya, Africa.
Joy Adamson was an utterly fearless person who participated in safaris, climbed mountains, suffered malaria and broken bones.

She authored several books including Born Free, Living Free, and Forever Free. She toured several countries promoting her books and her interests in the conservation and humane treatment of wild animals.
