    Tolkien Reading Day 2026 ~ Unlikely Heroes

    March 25th is Tolkien Reading Day 2026 and the theme is Unlikely Heroes! I will be reading selections from The Lord of the Rings about Prince Imrahil. Yes, he was already a man in leadership and strength, but times were perilous and selfish ambitions have distracted so many rulers. Imrahil of Dol Amroth stepped up and demonstrated his worthiness of his position by being a courageous, wise, humble, and faithful steward under Aragorn.
