Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What color is the stray cat that Meggie brings into Fenoglio's spare apartment?

Answer: Gray

Meggie thinks that she might be able to keep the cat, but after Basta arrives it hides under the bed. Meggie tries to stall Basta by telling him that the cat will die (which is bad luck) if it gets shut in the room, but he just opens a window.

2. Why does Basta always wear long sleeves?

Answer: His arms are burned

We don't know this until Fenoglio says it, among many other things about Capricorn and his other characters that they won't admit.

3. When Basta kidnaps Meggie (with Fenoglio) for the second time, he uses his knife to gouge the word "BASTA" into what?

Answer: The dresser

The evil man's name is enough to let Mo know where Meggie went.

4. What does Fenoglio's jacket smell like?

Answer: Pipe tobacco

Meggie smells the tobacco when she cries into Fenoglio's shirt.

5. Capricorn's father was which of the following?

Answer: A blacksmith

Capricorn likes to pretend that his mother was a king's daughter and his father was the armorer at her father's court, but really Capricorn's mother is Mortola, and his father was a blacksmith who beat his son.

6. When Mo and Elinor are driving toward Capricorn's village to rescue Meggie, does Dustfinger see their car first?

Answer: No

In fact, Farid sees the car first, but Dustfinger stops Mo and Elinor from actually going into the village.

7. When Dustfinger meets Resa outside the window, what sound does he imitate?

Answer: Gwin

The second time he does this, he turns around and is looking straight into Basta's face.

8. What does Meggie first read out of a book?

Answer: Tinker Bell

At first Meggie is too astonished to believe her eyes, but then she has to believe it. When Fenoglio first sees Tinker Bell, he thinks she's a mutated glowworm.

9. How does Fenoglio die?

Answer: He doesn't

Nothing much happens to Fenoglio until the end of "Inkheart," when he is read into his own story, along with Capricorn, Flatnose, and all the rest of the evil Black Jackets, other than Basta.

10. How long did Capricorn keep Dustfinger and Resa in the nets?

Answer: One night

Dustfinger thought it would be longer, but after a single, uncomfortable night, Capricorn has them moved to the Crypt.

11. What two things does Resa always have in her pockets?

Answer: Candles and stones

Smooth stones and colored candles are the things Resa is never without. She uses the stones to hold open her books, and when Meggie was little she would steal the stones and roll them across the floor. Resa uses one of her candles to giver her and Dustfinger light while they're in the Crypt.

12. When Meggie is practicing reading silently out of "Inkheart," how much does Mortola want her to read?

Answer: A chapter

Meggie doesn't actually read it, she just pretends to and instead spends her time thinking about where Mo is.

13. Mortola kept "Inkheart" in a casket full of what?

Answer: Snakes

Mortola explains how this is an excellent hiding place because Basta and almost everyone else is afraid of the snakes. Only Resa isn't scared of them, and she didn't think to look in the casket.

14. How many blue-skinned fairies went with Mo, Meggie, Resa, and Elinor back to Elinor's house?

Answer: Forty-three

Tinker Bell and a few other fairies decided to stay at Capricorn's village, because they liked the smell of the flowers. Meggie was glad that Tinker Bell didn't come with them to Elinor's house because she was a very self-centered fairy.

15. At the end, Farid leaves with Dustfinger.

Answer: True

Dustfinger doesn't want Farid to go with him, but Farid doesn't think he belongs with Meggie, Mo, and the others. So he follows Dustfinger, and they go to find another reader.
