Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was the name of Wilma's middle school?

Answer: Claverford

At the start of the book, we learned about Wilma's school Claverford. She explained that it was the richest middle school in the country. Wilma herself got in on a scholarship. Many of the other students there only attended because they had the money to do so.

2. Before Wilma made her wish, whom did she have a crush on?

Answer: Carlos

Carlos was BeeBee's boyfriend. After Wilma's wish came true, all the boys sent her notes asking her to the Grad Night Dance. Carlos was among them.

3. When Wilma slept over BeeBee's, what kind of food did the girls eat?

Answer: Chinese

Nina, BeeBee and Ardis all ate with chopsticks. Wilma couldn't handle them though and so she used a fork. Right afterwards the other girls switched to forks too in an attempt to be just like Wilma.

4. What breed was Daphne's dog?

Answer: Sheepdog

Reggie was an Airedale and Daphne's was a Sheepdog. Reggie's friend Celeste was a Dalmatian.

5. During the spell, Wilma received beautiful poems from a secret admirer. Who did the poet turn out to be?

Answer: Jared

Jared had always liked Wilma, even before the old lady granted her wish. He invited her to the zoo and after spending time with him, she realized what a great guy she was. Eventually they became boyfriend and girlfriend.

6. What was the final song played at Grad Night?

Answer: Sixteen Candles

Wilma was dreading the end of the dance because it would be her last night under the spell. She hoped that somehow it would last after graduation but it didn't.

7. What play was being discussed in Wilma's English Class?

Answer: "Hamlet"

On the first day under the spell, Wilma's teacher was trying to talk to the class about "Hamlet". But behind her back they were all passing notes to Wilma. At the Grad Night Dance, Ms. Hannah (Wilma's teacher) dressed as Ophelia from "Hamlet".

8. Ardis was visiting Wilma when Suzanne came over. She brought gourmet dog treats for Reggie. How much did she spend on them?

Answer: $7.00

When Wilma first became popular, the only thing people really talked to her about was Reggie. Suzanne bought the treats as an excuse to come over. Both before, during and after she was popular, Wilma disliked Suzanne.

9. True or False: Stephanie, an old friend of Nina, Ardis and BeeBee, did not like Wilma.

Answer: true

When Wilma realized Stephanie did not like her, she also realized that her wish would not last forever. Because Wilma only wished to be the most popular girl at school and Stephanie didn't attend Claverford, she was immune to the spell.

10. When Wilma was helping Ardis study for History, what were they trying to memorize the names of?

Answer: Ancient Civilizations

They jotted down the first letter of every civilization and then created a sentence to help remember which came when. This was the sentence: my brother and every musical man grow radishes.
