One example of the hero's journey is the book "The Hobbit" by J.R.R. Tolkien. In this story, the protagonist, Bilbo Baggins, starts off as a timid and home-loving hobbit who is reluctant to go on an adventure. However, he is ultimately pulled out of his comfort zone and embarks on a dangerous journey to help a group of dwarves reclaim their homeland. Along the way, he faces various challenges, meets allies and enemies, and undergoes personal growth, ultimately becoming a hero by the end of the story. This fits the hero's journey pattern as Bilbo goes through a transformative experience and emerges as a changed and heroic character.
