Tomorrow is the joint birthday of both Bilbo and Frodo Baggins.
Not sure why J.R.R. Tolkien picked June 22nd but he did and in America June 22nd is celebrated as Hobbit Day and that whole week as Tolkien Week.
Also be sure to read the first book - The Fellowship of the Ring - to get a better understanding of how Tolkien wanted Hobbits portrayed. As Sam says, "It's the job that's never started that takes the longest to finish." So read it now.
