Take a copy of the Hobbit or the Fellowship of the Ring. Read the forward to either of those books, and that has all you need to know about hobbits

Hobbits are little people, smaller than dwarves. They love peace and quiet and good tilled earth. They dislike machines, but they are handy with tools. They are nimble but don't like to hurry. They have sharp ears and eyes. They are inclined to be fat. They wear bright colors but seldom wear shoes. they like to laugh and eat (six meals a day) and drink. They like parties and they like to give and recieve presents. They inhabit a land they call The Shire, a place between the River Brandywine and the Far Downs.

I got this out of "What is a hobbit?" section of a paperback edition of The Hobbit
