American Girl: The "Molly" Series Quiz

Answer: Turnips

Since Molly's mother worked for the Red Cross, they had to have a housekeeper, Mrs. Gilford. Mrs. Gilford made turnips, which smelled like nasty gym socks. Molly refused to eat them, so she had to sit at the table until her turnips were gone. Molly's mom soon came home and mixed them with some sugar and cinnamon rations - then they tasted good!

Answer: A hula dancer

The first scene of "Meet Molly" had Molly daydreaming about being Cinderella for Halloween. Her dream had a few flaws, though; her two best friends would probably not want to be ugly stepsisters, and her mother probably wouldn't have enough time or money to make her an angora gown. The girls eventually settled on homemade hula outfits, which were a hit!

Answer: True

Molly and her friends originally wanted to "beat" the other girls at the contest by collecting bottletops to donate to make tanks and other things for the soldiers. The other girls in their class wanted to knit socks and sweaters. Eventually though, the girls merged their ideas, and won the contest by knitting a quilt and collecting over 100 bottletops!

Answer: Above Molly's garage

Molly and her two best friends, Linda and Susan, had a secret clubhouse in the storage room above Molly's garage. They liked to push two overstuffed chairs together and then sit in them, scheming and dreaming together.

Answer: Illinois

In "Molly's Surprise", Molly found a package on her doorstep from her dad, for Christmas, addressed to the McIntire Family, in Jefferson, Illinois. Molly and her sister, Jill, kept the package a secret from the rest of the family until Christmas morning, when they sneaked it underneath the Christmas tree before the rest of the family woke up.

Answer: Katherine

Molly got a doll for Christmas from her dad, who was working as a doctor in England, because of the war. Katherine was dressed as a nurse, who took care of wounded soldiers in hospitals.

Answer: Margaret Rose

Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose were very popular during the 1930s and 1940s. They both led lives that most girls could only dream about, although they were dealt quite a bit of hardship as well. Princess Elizabeth wound up becoming the Queen of England in 1953.

Answer: Dogs

Molly learned that Emily had not had a birthday party since she was five-years-old, so decided to share their tenth ones, even though Emily's was not at the same time as Molly's. The girls wound up getting dogs from the McIntire family. Molly named hers "Bennett", after her English friend Emily Bennett, and Emily named hers "Yank", after her Yankee American friend, Molly McIntire.

Answer: They got poison ivy

When Molly went to Camp Gowanagan (Go-On-Again), she, Linda, and Susan played Capture-The-Flag with the rest of the camp. Molly and Susan were put on the blue team, with Linda on red. They were rivals for awhile, until the blue team won by sneaking through a ton of poison ivy and capturing the flag!

Answer: False

Molly was an amazing tap dancer, but she didn't feel that she looked the part of Miss Victory. So her sister, Jill, set her hair in pin curls every night to make pretty curls. The pin curling had a horrible price - the wet hair business soon made Molly sick, and she was forced to stay home while Alison performed as Miss Victory. But it was a good thing she did stay home - she was able to greet Dad when he came home!
