Matthias insisted that he had to use a chicken feather to write with... just like Bilbo. I really didn't want to get into homemade ink this morning, so he is just pretending.
I think they wish they were just pretending!Except for Felix, once he got over the struggle of learning to read (he is dyslectic) we can't stop him. Here he is reading Richard Halliburton's complete The Book of Marvels, a book recommended in the Mater Amabilis Curriculum.
Not hobbits anymore, but aren't they sweet?
