The Lord of the Rings What excuse does Frodo give for selling his home and leaving the Shire? Asked by MHood2 on 18 May 07:56 Last updated by anonymous on 19 May 15:08
Frodo, in Lord of the Rings, is not originally from the Shire, but rather a bordering land. He offers the explanation that he misses his family and would like to move closer to them.
