I stumbled across this document while searching for a particular LotR quote:

There are quite a few lessons to be learned from this series of Movies:

Control your destiny
On giving advice
Trust your friends
Look deeper
Take the challenging path
Our times are difficult, but there is still beauty
In difficult times, you must guide your own destiny
On advice
On Friendship Through Challenging Times

Quite a few topics there, with a lot of good lessons and advice

From this series of movies and books.

Tolkien believed that all literal genres can rightfully pass on strong messages, the kind of story narrated is just a vector: nobody has the same tastes and is perceptible to the same codes and styles. The writer has to choose the best vector of communication for his public. Children clearly do not have the same visions than adults. Thus any literal genre is able to transmit morals to those who are touched by this atmosphere.
His writings mixed imaginary of fantasy and philosophy (stories full of morals, leading us to debate on important topics).
