Why did Gandalf present the dwarves to beorn in a staggered fashion?
Gandalf presents the dwarves in a staggered fashion while telling a story to keep Beorn's interest so he would not send them away.Gandalf wanted to keep Beorn fascinated in his story so he wouldn't notice the large number of dwarves Gandalf brought.
Why isn't beorn interested in the dwarves' tales in the hobbit?
The dwarves are interested in (as dwarves are wont to be) tales of gold and treasure, and Beorn, having little use for these items - - he has everything he needs - - is not interested in material wealth.
In 'The Hobbit' Why do the dwarves enter Beorn's house in pairs?
They enter in pairs because Gandalf tells them to do it. They don't want to go in all at once, so Beorn will think they were trying to kill him The dwarves must enter Beorn's house in pairs so that, as Gandalf tells their tale to Beorn, each entrance does not seem very imposing and Beorn's interest in the story is built up. Then the group will be able to stay with Beorn.
What had Beorn been doing during his absence in chapter 7 of The Hobbit?
{| |- | Beorn was off checking up on the story that Gandalf and the dwarves had told him. He returned and told them that he had confirmed the story.

What warning does beorn give the travellers about proceding through mirkwood?
