Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Magrat inherits a Fairy Godmother's wand from the witch Desiderata. What does this wand have on it?

Answer: Gold and silver rings set into the wand

Throughout the book, Magrat tries hard to get the wand to work, but all she manages to do most of the time is turn objects into pumpkins.

2. When Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat travel abroad, Nanny loses all their money, and her broom, betting. How much money do they have between them after this happens?

Answer: Forty-seven pence

Granny Weatherwax, luckily, has a plan to get back all their money and Nanny Ogg's broom. She uses magic to break her opponent's contraption that he's using to cheat!

3. What is Nanny Ogg eating when she and Granny Weatherwax share a bed?

Answer: A garlic sausage

Granny Weatherwax, of course, is highly disapproving and says, 'Sausage is alright in its place, and its place ain't in bed.'

4. Magrat sets off to find the girl to whom she is a Fairy Godmother. When she gets there, what happens?

Answer: The knocker breaks off

Magrat tries to fit the knocker back, and then it falls off and knocks a lump out of the marble step!

5. Mrs Gogol has a cockerel. What colour is it?

Answer: Black

This cockerel is described as the 'largest and blackest' cockerel Nanny Ogg had ever seen.

6. How did the old Baron of the City die?

Answer: He was poisoned

The morning after he died, the Duc was installed in the palace.

7. It turns out that Lilith de Tempscire and Esme Weatherwax are related. Esme is Lilith's what?

Answer: Younger sister

Esme Weatherwax explains to Nanny Ogg that her sister was kicked out by their mother when she was thirteen, when she and Nanny Ogg were both still tiny.

8. What is Lady Lilith de Tempscire's real name?

Answer: Lily

Nanny Ogg thinks Lily's a nice name, but of course it's not what she calls herself now.

9. What do the witches change Greebo into?

Answer: A man

As a human, Greebo has a broken nose and a black patch covering his bad eye.

10. In the end, what does Granny Weatherwax do with the glass slipper?

Answer: Smashes it

Magrat ruins the story by smashing the shoe; it's not how the story is supposed to end.
