Personally, mine is Farmer Giles of Ham... :)

I don't know his other non-LotR work. He wrote some poems, right? And perhaps some non-fiction too?

Leaf by Niggle. It's so different from his other works, and such a quaint way of making the analogy that it does.

"Farmer Giles of Ham" has to be one of the best works ever! It's certainly one of my favorites and my most favorite of Tolkein's non-LotR works. :D

Silmarillion of course.
Because it isn't LotR either.

I'll always have a fond spot in my heart for The Hobbit. I read it for the first time when I was in 4th grade, and have loved it since...but I also did like Farmer Giles!

Well, Silmarillion if it counts...but does it?

Farmer Giles of Ham is wonderful. :bounce:
Also, Roverandom was one of my favorites when i was really little.

Smith of Wootton Major has been my favourite for a long time. :)
Why wasn't it already said...?

Because it clearly wasn't anyone else's favourite so far.

I have to agree.

Leaf by Niggle because it was beautifully written and has characters that aren't just a set of shallow heroes and villains.
The Silarillion helped me to expand my background knowledge of Middle-Earth and helped with my understanding of LotR, but I found it hard to appreciate it as a novel and not as a history book or Bible-like story (in style, not in content), otherwise I'm sure it would have a good chance to rank as #1 on my personal list.
