Mr. Bliss, a man known for his excessively tall hats and the giant rabbit in his garden, humorously decides to buy a car. However, his first trip to visit friends quickly turns into a series of disasters…

J.R.R. Tolkien created and illustrated the book with Mr. Bliss's adventures for his children when they were very young. The book was handwritten and includes many detailed and comic colored images.

This is a complete and highly fantastical story of eccentricity. Some of the disasters befalling Mr. Bliss could be attributed to his driving style, but even he couldn't have predicted being kidnapped by three bears. As for what happened next – readers, whether young or old, will want to discover it for themselves.

Re-released in hardcover to match Letters from Father Christmas and other illustrated Tolkien editions, Mr. Bliss is presented as a conventional illustrated story and also contains the handwritten pages by Tolkien in facsimile at the end, sure to delight Tolkien fans of all ages.
