    They realize Gandalf was missing when they needed a place to camp. They camp under some trees. They sadly couldn't start a fire, & then one of the horses ran away with some of their food. Kili and Fili almost drowned trying to get the horse back to them. They failed to get the horse or the food back. They later saw lights in the distance & argued over going or not going. They decided to go see what the light was.

    The dwarfs sent Bilbo to see what the light was. It was a fire, with 3 trolls around it, talking. Bilbo tried to pick one of their pockets and ended up getting caught. The trolls started arguing against themselves. The troll holding Bilbo got punched & dropped Bilbo. Bilbo took his chance to run away. Then the dwarfs came to see what Bilbo was doing and they all got caught except for Thorin. Gandalf came back and helped Bilbo and Thorin save their friends by distracting them.

    Pages 40-45 : Secret Valley of Rivendell
    They ate dinner, talked about what happened, where Gandalf had gone, & slept. For the next few days, they continued their adventure, with little talking because they felt like there was danger around them. They saw Misty Mountains, and now they have to go through, over, or under them to get to Rivendell. Finally, as they're crossing the mountains, Bilbo's pony slips almost pushing Gandalf off the cliff & they found the Secret Valley of Rivendell.

    Pages 46-51: Elrond
    They skittered down the mountain. When they arrived in the valley, they were welcomed by the elves who lived there. The elves sang to them & offered if they wanted to stay for a little. The dwarfs declined the offer but stayed for dinner before they went to see Elrond, master of the Last Homely Home. They find out that the weapons they had got from the trolls were more powerful than they thought. After their meeting with Elrond, they set out to finish their journey over Misty Mountains.

    Pages 52-56: Misty Mountains & a Cave
    They began their long journey through the mountains. It's been miles & days since they left Rivendell. They were in hopes of reaching a secret door in Lonely Mountian by Durin's day. They were still on the mountain when they saw some stone giants throwing boulders at each other. Soon the adventurers found a nice dry cave nearby. When Bilbo slept, he dreamed of a crack in the wall of the cave, when he woke up, there was a hole.
