Приключения Тома Бомбадила” и другие стихи из “Алой Книги” (англ. The Adventures of Tom Bombadil) - сборник стихотворений, написанных Дж. Р. Р. Толкином. Впервые опубликован в 1962 году в Великобритании. Книга содержит 16 стихотворений, только два из них имеют отношение к Тому Бомбадилу, персонажу романа «Властелин Колец». Остальные стихотворения посвящены животным или сказочным сюжетам. В книгу включены также два стихотворения из «Властелина Колец».

Кузнец из Большого Вуттона - волшебная рождественская притча Д. Р. Р. Толкиена о том, как к сыну кузнеца попадает Волшебная Звезда, с этих пор его жизнь меняется, и он становится способен путешествовать по Волшебной стране. Всем , кому по нраву эльфы и волшебники, тем, кто способен разглядеть целый мир в капельке воды..

Лист работы Мелкина - Leaf by Niggle (в другом переводе Лист кисти Ниггля, ) - рассказ Джона Р. Р. Толкина. Это философская нравоучительная сказка, которая содержит множество религиозных и моральных аллегорий.

Роверандом (англ. Roverandom) - повесть, написанная Дж. Р. Р. Толкином; впервые рассказана им в 1925 году. В ней описываются приключения щенка Ровера. Волшебник превращает Ровера в игрушку, и Ровер посещает Луну и дно моря, чтобы найти волшебника и попросить превратить его обратно в собаку. Автор написал «Роверандом» для своего сына Майкла Толкина, чтобы отвлечь его от потери любимой игрушки - плюшевого щенка.

The collection is called Tales from the Perilous Realm, which has recently been released as a hardback illustrated edition (but with Roverandom added to the collection).

The Adventures of Tom Bombadil is a collection of poetry published in 1962. The book contains 16 poems, only two of which deal with Tom Bombadil, a character who is most famous for his encounter with Frodo Baggins in The Fellowship of the Ring. The rest of the poems are an assortment of bestiary verse and fairy tale rhyme. Two of the poems appear in The Lord of the Rings as well. The book is part of the Middle-earth canon.

Roverandom - A young dog named Rover is happily playing with his yellow rubber ball when he meets a cross old man. Rover sends the man on his way, tearing his trousers in the process. Sadly for Rover, the old man is Artaxerxes, a powerful wizard from Persia. Artaxerxes turns Rover into a toy dog, and sends him off. This is the start of an epic quest for Rover, who meets a sand-wizard, the Man-in-the-Moon, the great dragons that live on the moon, the many merfolk living at the bottom of the ocean, and a delightful little boy.

Farmer Giles of Ham did not look like a hero. He was fat and red bearded and enjoyed a slow, comfortable life. Then one day a rather deaf and short-sighted giant blundered on to his land. More by luck than skill, Farmer Giles managed to scare him away. The people of the village cheered: Farmer Giles was a hero! His reputation spread far and wide across the kingdom. So it was natural that when the dragon Chrysophylax visited the area it was Farmer Giles who was expected to do battle with it!

Smith of Wootton Major - Tolkien's Smith of Wootton Major takes us to Fairy and introduces us to the King and Queen of Fairyland, something he never does in any other story, Fantasy or Fairy tale. This story shows us a glimp in the 'real Middle-Earth', as it must have been believed to exist around the year 1000, during the Middle Ages. Even in The Silmarillion we never hear the High King of the Elves,say a single word. He is only a distant figure, a name buried in legends. And there are no elves or fairies in "Farmer Giles of Ham". Even Roverandom reduces fairies to ephemeral creatures, and grants us only a quick glance at the shores of the enchanted world. Tolkien uses metaphor in “Smith” quite noticeably, which is an unusual motif for him. He resorts to symbols and symbolism only occasionally, preferring to be straightforward with his references in most stories. So Smith of Wootton Major too is a story for both adults and children, appealing to the sense of wonder on two levels.

The Adventures of Tom Bombadil is the dramatization of Tom Bomdabil's scenes with the four Hobbits in The Fellowship of the Ring, rather than a retelling of the events of the poems The Adventures of Tom Bombadil.
Brian Sibley had expressed some pity in not including it in his radio adaptation of The Lord of the Rings, and decided to include it here.

Leaf by Niggle - The story, was originally written by J. R. R. Tolkien in 1938-39 and first published in the Dublin Review in January 1945. It can be found, most notably, in Tolkien's book titled "Tree and Leaf". This is notable because the book, consisting of a seminal essay by Tolkien called "On Fairy-Stories"and "Leaf by Niggle" as example, offers the underlying philosophy (Creation and Sub-Creation) of much of Tolkien's fantastical writings. It can also be found in many other books where it is combined with other (short) stories and/or essays & poems by Tolkien. Here it is however only the tale Leaf by Niggle that has been dramatized and just as the book itself it is a true gem. Of all the Radio Dramatizations I very much like The Lord of the Rings, but this one I believe to be even better.
