The Hobbit’s main theme is Bilbo’s development into a hero, which more broadly represents the development of a common person into a hero with the journey he takes to get the dragon smaug to get the gold back.
Confronting the trolls, escaping with Gollum’s ring, slaying the spider, rescuing the dwarves in Mirkwood, and speaking face-to-face with the great dragon Smaug all provide Bilbo with opportunities to test his resolve. As he builds confidence and resourcefulness, Bilbo emerges as a true hero.
