Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: She cries often.

Bethany's mother has cried for no apparent reason on occasion for as long as Bethany can remember, but it has become almost constant in the past two months. Bethany becomes very worried, but there is nothing she can do that seems to help her mother.

2. Where do Bethany's parents leave her?

Answer: Sanderfield, Illinois

Bethany's parents take Bethany with them and leave one night, and Bethany does not know where she is going. They stop in Sanderfield, Illinois, and leave Bethany there with her aunt.

3. What is the occupation of Bethany's cousin Joss?

Answer: Minister

Joss's church is in St. Louis, much to her mother's chagrin, because it is much too far away. Joss claims to be the black sheep of the family.

4. Why is Bethany so surprised that her parents have abandoned her?

Answer: Because her parents were always so protective.

Bethany's parents have never even left her home alone, and they suddenly leave her with a stranger. She finds it extremely bewildering.

5. Which police officer has been friends with Myrlie since kindergarten?

Answer: Ryan "Bridgie" Bridgeman

Bethany's aunt Myrlie, who has been teaching kindergarten for decades, had Officer Bridgeman in her kindergarten class along with her daughter Jocelyn and niece Elizabeth.

6. How does Bethany hear about Elizabeth?

Answer: She hears her parents talking to Myrlie.

Elizabeth was Bethany's sister who died before Bethany was born, but her parents have kept her a secret from Bethany. Everyone who knew Elizabeth looks at Bethany as if they have seen a ghost, because Bethany looks so much like Elizabeth did.

7. How did Elizabeth die?

Answer: In a car crash

On Elizabeth's thirteenth birthday, she and Joss celebrate by going to Sinclair Mountain, an exciting theme park, with their parents. Joss lets Elizabeth choose her seat on the way back, and this choice kills her. Joss's father also is killed in this car crash.

8. What sport does Bethany participate in that Elizabeth hated?

Answer: Swimming

Elizabeth had been scared of the water since she almost drowned at the age of three. Bethany, however, was amazed by the underwater view and wanted to be a mermaid. She becomes a swimmer while Elizabeth never even put her toe in a swimming pool again.

9. Who writes the ad in the personal column for Walter Cole?

Answer: Dalton VanDyne

Bethany's father worked for Dalton VanDyne and was supposed to produce a clone of him, but instead cloned Elizabeth. He wanted to find his son, because he felt that the only person who could ever love him would be his own clone. Bethany's father is avoiding him because he is afraid that VanDyne wants his money back.

10. Does Bethany ever discover that she is, in fact, Elizabeth's clone?

Answer: Yes

Bethany looks exactly like Elizabeth did, and she begins to suspect it long before her father affirms her belief. Her parents wanted to have another chance with Elizabeth, so they had her cloned, but Bethany's personality has been slightly altered because her environment is different.
