Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Marigold was 33 when this book started. What did she say about this age?

Answer: It was the age Jesus died

Marigold was very religious and had a cross tattoo put on her elbow. This wasn't the reason - it was because she thought she was at a crossroads in her life.

2. What tattoo did Marigold have on her wrist?

Answer: diamond

They were there to cover scars on her wrist. She often said that Star and Dolphin were her two diamonds. Star also gets a diamond nose stud at the end of this book.

3. What was special about Dolphin and Star's bedroom?

Answer: The walls were a sea, and the ceiling had stars

When Star goes to visit Micky, her father, Marigold paints their room white, over the fish and stars, to make it more normal. Star didn't want an abnormal life with her crazy mother and a sad little sister - she just wanted to be with her father. This plot didn't work though - it only made things worse because Marigold had to go into hospital.

4. Who did Dolphin like out of these characters?

Answer: Oliver

Oliver was nicknamed "Owly" because of his specs. He gave Dolphin his emergency money because she wanted to find her father, and comforted her when her mother had to go to hospital.

5. Why did Marigold have to go to hospital?

Answer: She was covered with paint

She painted herself white and muttered little rhymes. She got specks of white in her ear so Dolphin called an ambulance.

6. Micky took Star, Marigold and Dolphin out for the day. What did they not do?

Answer: Go to the cinema

They also went into a shop where Mickey bought toys for everyone. Dolphin wished she didn't always get stuck with dolphins - she really wanted a china doll she would name Natasha.

7. Marigold had personal tattoos for both Star and Dolphin.

Answer: True

She had a star, dolphin, marigold, daisy chain, snake, eye, bats, frog, and more. She had a heart with "Micky" in because she loved him. She always wished for him on her birthday, and whenever she made a wish, she said his name.

8. What did Dolphin wear to school?

Answer: Her black dress

Star wore a uniform even though they didn't have to. She customised it herself - with badges. Dolphin wore her beautiful black witchy dress that was once Marigold's. When Dol was in care, it was washed and all the black seeped away and left a horrible grey.

9. Michael lives in Brighton.

Answer: False

Micky lives in Brighton. Star took the train there because she wanted to live with him. Marigold and Dolphin went up there to find her but couldn't. Marigold even jumped into a cab saying "Take us to Micky's place!" as if the driver knew where to go!

10. What tattoo did Marigold have on her stomach?

Answer: A sorceress

She was peering into her crystal ball (Marigold's navel). If only Marigold looked into her crystal ball to see what was going to happen to her!
