Where are Tolkien's dwarves from?
They were created by Aulë, one of the Valar (unlike men and elves who were made by Ilúvatar). The Valar weren't supposed to create beings so when Ilúvatar found out, Aulë offered them to Ilúvatar to do with what he wanted, even have them destroyed. But Ilúvatar was merciful and permitted them life of their own, as long as they slept underground until the elves awakened. This may be confusing, I suggest you read the book "The Silmarillion" for more information about Tolkien's world and the history of Middle-Earth. Fascinating stuff.
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.
Which dwarves die in the hobbit book?
Of the THIRTEEN dwarves that set out along with Bilbo Baggins on the Quest of Erebor, three died in the Battle of the Five Armies: Fili, Kili, and Thorin Oakenshield. The other 10 dwarves were: Dwalin, Balin, Dori, Nori, Ori, Oin, Gloin, Bifur, Bofur, and Bombur. In the 1977 animated movie version of The Hobbit, only 6 of the dwarves live. I forget which though. One thing I'm certain of: Fili, Kili, and Thorin die in both the book and the animated movie. However, only Fili, Kili, and Thorin die in the book.
