Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Social Studies time -- and the teacher tells Charles to find a book on moccasin making by American Indians. Do you think you can pick it out?

Answer: The Last of the Mohicans

A last is a device used in making shoes, and moccasins are a type of shoe worn by American Indians, and many other people!
2. Charles is taking Economics this year. His teacher is a bit confused, since he thinks Jane Austen wrote a textbook! Can you find the book Charles needs?

Answer: Cents and Sensibility

One of Jane Austen's most famous novels is "Sense and Sensibility."
3. English class -- but the teacher wants Charles to get a French novel by Verne about a sinking ship. Can you help find it?

Answer: 20,000 Leaks Under the Sea

Jules Verne, the French novelist, wrote "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" about a submarine and its captain, Nemo. A submarine with leaks would surely sink even faster!
4. Charles loves his History teacher -- but she likes old Disney comic books too much. When she assigned a book on a Spanish-American War hero she mistakenly told Charles to get this book.

Answer: The Life of Admiral Huey, Dewey and Louie

Admiral George Dewey was the "Hero of Manila" for his defeat of the Spanish fleet during the Spanish-American War of 1898.
5. Ouch! Charles' English teacher has been reading too much about Welsh poet Dylan Thomas when she asked Charles to get Beatrix Potter's most famous book. Can you find it?

Answer: Tales of Peter Rarebit

"Tales of Peter Rabbit" by Beatrix Potter is fairly famous -- and Welsh Rarebit is a standard of British cuisine.
6. Charles' French teacher wants him to read a book by Dumas about four friends -- but she had a hair-raising experience at the salon this morning, so she may not have gotten the title quite right. What book is Charles to get?

Answer: The Three Mousseketeers

I hope the "four friends" made sure you chose "The Three Mousseketeers" -- unless you relied on the "hair-raising" properties of "mousse!" Dumas' classic tale of Athos, Porthos, Aramis and D'Artagnan and the intrigues of the French court has been filmed many times now.
7. Oh no! Metrication has hit the English teacher far too hard! She has asked Charles to read Longfellow's poem about the Pilgrims. Can you find it?

Answer: The Courtship of Kilometers Standish

"The Courtship of Myles Standish" is best known for its total historical inaccuracy. But it does make a nice poem.
8. History class -- and the subject the teacher stressed today was the History of Aviation. But he was a bit off on the name of the autobiography of the first man to fly from the US to Paris -- perhaps the language barrier got too great?

Answer: Oui

"We" was Charles Lindbergh's famed autobiography and account of his flight from Roosevelt Field to Orly Airport. In 1954, his later book "The Spirit of St. Louis" won the Pulitzer Prize!
9. In Social Studies, the time has come to study Africa. For this his teacher is a bit confused and wants Charles to get a book about Hemingway and Broadway theaters in Kenya. What book could he possibly want?

Answer: The Shows of Kilimanjaro

"The Snows of Kilimanjaro" was one of Hemingway's own favorite short stories.
10. Christmas is near -- and Charles' Drama coach wants them to read one of the most famous movie scripts of all time for the season. Unfortunately, he seems to think Charles Atlas was Natalie Wood's co-star! What script do you think he asked for?

Answer: Muscle On 34th Street

In 1947, Natalie Wood struck gold as the child star in "Miracle on 34th Street." Be sure to look for the cane.
