If it is in The Hobbit, it is to get Bilbo started on his adventure. If it is in the Fellowship of the Ring it is to have the ring returned to the mountain to be destroyed.

It does not say. Balin was possibly the most fond of Bilbo of all the dwarves - as shown when he is the only one to accompany Bilbo into the tunnel in Erebor.

Why did gandalf visit Bilbo Baggins?

I think Gandalf came to Bilbo to either get a 14 man. (Another reply) Gandalf was helping the dwarves, and he believed that Bilbo could help. However, his help to the dwarves was secondary to his main mission: to get information about Sauron. Sauron is mentioned in the Hobbit, as the Necromancer; in the Lord of the Rings, Gandalf confirms that the "Necromancer" was no other than the old enemy, Sauron.


Who was Bilbo's first visitor in 'The Hobbit'?

Gandalf is technically the first visitor. But the first Dwarf to knock on his door before 'the Unexpected Party' was Dwalin.


Does the wizard like or does not like Bilbo in the book hobbit?

Yes, the wizard(Gandalf) likes Bilbo very much. It is by the will of Gandalf that Bilbo comes along with the dwarves for the quest. His concern for Bilbo can be seen when all the dwarves come out from goblin's cave but Bilbo remains behind. Gandalf continues to visit Bilbo even after the end of dwarves quest.


Why didn't Bilbo Baggins visit with his friends in the north?

In the movie of The Fellowship of the Ring, Bilbo Baggins leaves Hobbiton to go north once more and visit his friends. He doesn't make it much farther than Rivendell where he settles for a time to write his books. In the book, he travels to Dale in the company of dwarves before returning to Rivendell.


What is the ending of The Hobbit?

In the end, there is the Battle of Five Armies, in which Thorin dies, and Kili and Fili die defending him, for he was their uncle. Bilbo had used his ring to become invisible and didn't really do any fighting. He was knocked out when he cried out "Eagles! The Eagles are coming!" and was hit on the head with a rock. After they all said their goodbyes, Gandalf and Bilbo head to Rivendell where Gandalf talks to Elrond about what happened. Then they returned to the Shire where Bilbo finds an auction going on at Bag End. He thinks that Lobelia stole all his spoons though. After a few years, Balin and Gandalf come to his house and visit.


What exactly did mr Tolkien mean by entitling this chapter an unexpected party?

In this chapter "An Unexpected Party" from J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit," the title refers to the surprising and unplanned arrival of the group of dwarves at Bilbo Baggins' hobbit hole. The unexpected nature of their visit sets the stage for the adventures that follow in the story.


How long is The Hobbit written by JRR Tolkien?

There is some challenge to what the time frame was. It was about 7 or eight years, but could have been a bit longer. It was published in 1937. His sons seem to recall parts of the story from sometime in the 1928 to 1930 time frame.


What is an example of slapstick comedy in chaper 2 the hobbit?

When the Dwarves first come to visit Bilbo there is a bit of slapstick humor. At one point there is a loud knock on his door which causes him to get angry and open the door with a jerk. Four Dwarves come crashing in, one on top of the other. Gandalf gets a good laugh!


What is the exposition for The Hobbit?

Bilbo Baggins is a well-to-do hobbit* who is respected by many and never dreamed of doing anything adventurous of unexpected. However, his perfect life is suddenly disrupted as Gandalf the wizard thrusts him into the wilderness with thirteen dwarves to find a vast treasure and slay the dragon guarding it. With a surprising amount of luck, Bilbo survives trolls, giant wolves, mysterious elves, and a strange ring, before finally arriving with his companions at the evil mountain wherein lies the treasure, and the dragon! The company awakens the dragon, who flies about the land, and soon elves, men and dwarves are all after the treasure! Will Bilbo's company be able to save the treasure from greedy hands, or be killed in the resulting Battle of Five Armies? Read it and find out!*Hobbit:Hobbits are a small fictional people, shorter that dwarves, who live in a land they call the Shire. They all share a love of peace and quiet, things that grow, and food, and they don't like anything unexpected and dangerous.


What has Gandalf been doing since Bilbo left the Shire?

No one really knows for sure, I suppose. J.R.R. Tolkien basically left it up to the reader to decide what happened to Gandalf. I always liked to think he went back to being the Gray wanderer, frequently stopping by the Shire to visit Merry, Pippin and Sam. But that's just me.
