Anyways.. the cover of the Hobbit was what drew me to the book.. an illustrated piece of Smaug (the Dragon) curled up on a bed of golden treasure.. it really helped to inform my imagination of how the story 'looked' as I read it.. So finally... after what seems like a million years... here's my (Children's Book?) interpretation of the cover..
Flippin' heck.. that was a long post!

Man Shane, I like your version way better than the original one I remember seeing on my first pb edition (was the artist's name Pauline something?) I love the color contrast of red and yellow. Absolutely terrific!
Blimey Rogue.. you have a better memory than me! I don't ever recall looking for the name of the Illustrator!! Maybe I should pay more attention!! Ha Ha Ha
Thanks for the positive comments guys!
