"Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Meltdown" Quiz

Answer: Heatwave

The book began in the month of January, when there was an uncommon heatwave happening. The school's heating system was still running, so everyone in the school was burning up inside the classroom.

Answer: Malta

Greg remembered that he had started his project days after it was given, but then forgot about it and left it in his locker. He didn't have much time to finish it so he wrote random facts down on the tri-fold, put together food from the cafeteria that might have been food from Malta, and pulled clothes from the lost and found that looked like something people in Malta would wear.

The teacher made him do his project all over after a fight broke out in the room where they were having the exhibit, and several projects were ruined.

Answer: False

Rowley had to go to the bathroom and they weren't close to his house so Rowley stepped behind a rock in Mr. Yee's front yard and used the bathroom. By the time Rowley was done, kids had started to gather around the yard to see what was happening.

Answer: Blanket

The blanket Aunt Dorothy got all three boys for Christmas was soft and heavy. Greg's mom had to make a schedule for the boys since all three of them wanted to use it at the same time. When the boys kept messing up the schedule, their mom took the blanket and kept it in her room.

Answer: Greg's mom

Greg's grandmother went south during the winter and came back during the spring. Greg knew where the key was, so he and Rowley used her house to get warm. Greg had to turn the heat on and they used the oven to warm themselves until the heat warmed the house.

While they were there, Greg and Rowley watched TV. When they were ready to head home, the boys used the dryer to warm their clothes. Greg's mom found them in the laundry room when she came over to do laundry since the washer/dryer at her house was broken.

Answer: He used pizza boxes as snow shoes.

Greg thought he would warm his boots before he put them on so his feet wouldn't freeze. He kept the boots too close to the fire and the rubber soles melted to the fireplace. He took two old pizza boxes and tied them onto his sneakers with duct tape. It worked half way to school; then the pizza boxes became soggy and dogs attacked the boxes for the pizza Greg left inside them.

Answer: Greg's dad

Greg's dad told Greg he used to build snow forts when he was a kid, so Rowley and Greg decided if they had to stay outside that they would build a snow fort. They shaped snow into blocks and built a snow fort on low ground.

Answer: Dead wolf

Greg used an old pillowcase he found in the laundry room, and markers to decorate the flag. Greg wanted a bloody axe head, but Rowley wanted a wolf head so the boys compromised and a wolf head with an axe through it was used. When they put their flag up on top of their snow fort, other kids began putting flags up on their snow forts.

Answer: A snowplow took the snow off the road.

A knockdown drag out snowball fight had started between the kids of Surrey Street. They were using homemade snowballs and snowballs they bought from a kid that was selling them to make money. The only reason the snowball fight stopped was because the snowplow removed most of the snow from the road, and the kids lost interest after that.

Answer: False
