Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In 'The NeverEnding Story', Bastian completes his quest in Fantasia and, by the power of his imagination, sits on Falkor's back to fly back to the 'real' world. What kind of creature is Falkor?

Answer: Dragon

Falkor, a 'good luck' dragon, and the protagonist, Bastian, team up with Atreyu, a warrior from the Plains People, to save the country of Fantasia and with it the Childlike Empress, whom Bastian names Moonchild after his mother.

Falkor can fly, though as he doesn't have wings, he seems to 'swim' through the air like a water snake or eel. At the end of the tale, Flakor takes Bastian back to the real world and the bullies who are tormenting Bastian at the start of the story are chased into into a heap of rubbish.
2. Anna Quayle plays Baroness Bomburst in which 1968 musical film about a flying car?

All the toys try to guess what Andy will be given for Christmas this year - but they aren't expecting a puppy!

Kevin sets himself up as bait to lead Harry and Marv away from the toy store, but he runs into trouble when he is nearly caught. He makes friends with the pigeon lady in Central Park after she rescues him from Harry and Marv. He presents her with one of the turtledoves given to him by Mr. Duncan and explains that they are now friends forever. Kevin's family flies back from Florida in time for his mother to find him at base of the Christmas tree at the Rockefeller Center, so they are all able celebrate Christmas together.

Meanwhile, Nigel the Brown Pelican gives Marlin a ride in his beak, and the two are reunited.

Right before they are due to go, his wife (Ellie) gets sick and dies. Carl decides he should go anyway and attaches thousands of balloons to the roof of his house, causing it to rise.

He makes it to Paradise Falls just as he promised Ellie, and rescues a young friend named Russell.

The annoying Eustace finds a treasure trove on one island and places a bracket around his arm. He turns into a dragon and before the others leave the island without him, as they were unable to find him, he manages to let them know he is Eustace.

He is changed back into a boy, having met Aslan, and rejoins the others, transformed in character. They continue the voyage to the end of the world before returning, sadly, to our world.
