Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What did Stanley say to the guard on the bus?

Answer: He didn't say anything to him

Stanley didn't have anything to say, and the guard didn't talk. And the busdriver just drove the bus. It was a long, quiet trip to camp.
2. The judge had given Stanley a choice of community service or going to Camp Green Lake.

Answer: False

Stanley didn't really have much of a choice at his hearing - the judge said he could go to jail or go to camp. Stanley choose camp.
3. How long was the bus trip to Camp Green Lake?

Answer: over eight hours

It was a long drive to camp for both Stanley and the bus driver and the guard. As bad as it was for Stanley, since he was handcuffed to the seat, it was probably worse for the guard and driver since they had to turn right around and go back.
4. The boys at Camp Green Lake had to dig holes as their punishment. What was the dimension of the hole they had to dig?

Answer: 5 x 5

The holes had to be dug a certain depth and a certain width, and when the boys were done with their hole they usually spit in them.
5. Most everyone at camp thought Zero was stupid. He was actually very good at what subject?

Answer: math

Zero was thought to be stupid partly because he never talked to anyone, that is until Stanley came along. Stanley found out that Zero couldn't read or write, but he could do math quickly in his head. The two boys came to the arrangement of Zero digging Stanley's hole so Stanley could have the energy to teach Zero to read.
6. Mr. Sir thought Stanley had stolen something from him, so he took Stanley to the warden. What was it that Stanley supposedly took from Mr. Sir?

Answer: a bag of sunflower seeds

Mr. Sir had stopped smoking and took up eating sunflower seeds instead. One of the boys had taken the bag of sunflower seeds, and was passing the sack around to all the other boys. Stanley was the last boy to get the sack, and didn't really even get any because they ended being spilled all over the ground. Since Mr. Sir found the seeds near to Stanley he thought he was the guilty one. Stanley, once again got accused of taking something he had not taken at all.
7. What is Twitch's real name?

Answer: Brian

Twithch's real name was Brian, although no one went by their given names once they were at camp. All the boys had nicknames which was a reflection of their personality - Twitch said he "twitched" when it came to something he wanted to steal.
8. What did Stanley find in his hole the very first time he found something interesting?

Answer: a fossil

Stanley and the boys were told if they found something interesting they might get the day off from digging. Stanley found a fossil of a fish. It didn't get him the day off, but it did earn him the nickname of Caveman.
9. After Zero and Stanley came back to camp after having run away, they got to digging and found what item?

Answer: a suitcase

What they had found was the suitcase that had belonged to Stanley's great-great grandfather and was the suitcase in which Kissing Kate Barlow had stashed all her stolen loot. Although the warden wanted the suitcase she couldn't say it was hers because it had "Stanley Yelnats" on it, which was Stanley's name as well as his great-great grandfather's name.
10. As Stanley was leaving camp, Armpit asked him to give a message to his mother. What did Armpit want his mother to know?

Answer: that he was sorry

Lots of changes were happening at the end of the book: Zero could spell, the treasure was found, the warden and her crew were arrested, and it began to rain - the first time in about 100 years. Another big change was the tough attitude that Squid had. He wanted his mom to know that he was sorry, which probably was a story right there that could be told.
