Artist Adam Murphy has shared a charming fusion of The Hobbit and Peanuts. Bilbo Baggins slips into Charlie Brown's mannerisms incredibly easily, since the two diminutive, nervous heroes have a lot in common. As children's media that have captured entire generations of fans of all ages, Peanuts and The Hobbit have more in common than you'd think.

In this adorable art from Adam Murphy, The Hobbit's Bilbo Baggins is recreated in the iconic art style of Charles Schulz's Peanuts. J. R. R. Tolkien's beloved fantasy novel sees the titular hobbit Bilbo hired as a burglar by a group of dwarves who intend to reclaim their home from the dragon Smaug. But while it's hard to imagine Charlie Brown, Snoopy and Pig-Pen tangling with trolls and charting the Misty Mountains, the story's pastoral setting has a lot in common with Peanuts' idyllic American childhood.
