Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. When Greg's father says "friend" to Greg, what does this mean?

Answer: Greg is in trouble

Greg used to make the mistake of thinking that "friend" was good. His father used that term when Greg woke him up with loud heavy metal music.
2. Why is Greg initially unhappy about being put in the Gifted reading group?

Answer: There is a lot of extra work

Greg later is happy to be in the Gifted Group, after discovering a few kids in the Easy Group (i.e. the "Bink Says Boo" readers) holding their books upside-down.
3. Greg Heffley received which of these from Uncle Charlie for Christmas?

Answer: A picture of Uncle Charlie

Greg thought the package was the right size for a video game, only to find out it was just an 8x10 picture of Uncle Charlie.
4. Why was the "Wizard of Oz" play cancelled early?

Answer: Patty's glasses got knocked off and thus broke

The trees (including Greg, a tree himself) threw apples at Patty (who played Dorothy). One of the lenses of Patty's glasses broke, and this meant that she couldn't see properly. Therefore, the play was cut early. While people failed to memorize their lines, this was not a reason for the play being cancelled early. Rodney James' stage fright caused the play to start late, but it didn't cause the play to be cancelled early.
5. Why did Greg ask for a Barbie dollhouse for Christmas?

Answer: He wanted a fort for his toy soldiers

Rodrick assumes that he likes girly toys because of this. Also, note that Greg didn't get a Barbie dollhouse from his uncle, but a Barbie doll. (Greg got the plastic Barbie doll's shoe stuck up his nose.)
6. Why was Rowley mistakenly accused of chasing preschoolers with a worm on a stick?

Answer: Greg wore Rowley's raincoat and was thus mistaken to be Rowley

When Greg took over Rowley's duty of walking preschoolers back, he wore Rowley's raincoat. He chased preschoolers with a worm on a stick in front of Mrs. Irvine, a friend of Rowley's mother. She saw the raincoat and thought Rowley was responsible.
7. How does Greg beat Rowley in car racing games?

Answer: Greg names his car something ridiculous

Greg named his car "Bad Fart Ahead." Once Greg bypassed Rowley's car, Rowley fell to pieces. He lost grip of his controller due to laughing hysterically.
8. How did Rowley break his hand?

Answer: He fell off a tricycle

After Greg threw a football in front of the front wheel of the tricycle, Rowley flew up high and landed hard. Rowley broke his left hand. Greg mentioned that Rowley is right-handed, which meant that he could feed himself fine.
9. Who is Archie Kelly?

Answer: The boy Greg referred to as "Bubby" to deflect embarrassment

Greg calls Archie that when Manny yells out "Bubby!" during the "Wizard of Oz" performance.
10. Greg Heffley won a competition for his "Creighton the Cretin" to be published on the school newspaper. What went wrong?

Answer: His comic was edited and ruined

Greg's "Creighton the Cretin" was turned into "Creighton the Curious Student", which was essentially an ad for the school library.
