Non-Tolkien Halflings and Hobbit-like Peoples (44 books)

There's already a list for "the most obvious Tolkien imitators" (imitation being the sincerest form of flattery!), but this is specifically for halflings, fond homages to Tolkien, and also some very blatant Hobbit rip-offs. Anything predating Tolkien (i.e. the Snergs) is welcome, too.

No dwarves, please. There is a separate list for Dwarves here: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/2...

Are you an expert in this field? :) Your expertise is needed to solve some stubborn threads from "What's the Name of That Book?!":

70s Hobbit-like (rip-off), illustrated in b&w pen/pencil
