Squares and Arrows

How did the children find room 7-B?

• Milligan begrudgingly showed them where the room was located.
• Kate went through the heating duct and unlocked the door and let the other children in.

What is one striking thing about Milligan, who the children meet while trying to get into the room.

• How intelligent he sounds.
• How he smells like the ocean.

What is Sticky's real name?

Why was Reynie the only child to walk across the floor?

• He was the only child who figured out that the colors on the floor were in the shape of rectangles and not squares.
• Reynie was taking a risk when he walked across the floor because he was not supposed to set foot on any blue or black squares.
• He decided that rules are for fools and he doesn't give two mules about rules!
• Reynie didn't complete the test, but he passed anyway.

Why did the following phrase "final testing place," strike Reynie as having a "particularly ominous sound"?

• Reynie doesn't know what the word ominous means, so therefore the phrase really has no meaning.
• Reynie knew they were going to face more tricks at their "final testing place," and so he felt ominous about it.
• He is uncertain about what the future holds for him and his new friends.
• "Final testing place" sounded like "final resting place," and one's final resting place is where s/he is laid to rest after death.

Even though Kate would prefer to be called The Great Kate Weather Machine, she actually has a nickname, but only one person has called her that. What is her nickname?

• Katydon't
• Katie-Cat
• Acrobat-Cat
• Katydid

When the children see Rhonda Kazembe again, what does Reynie notice about her immediately?

• That she still has green hair.
• That she is a grown-up.
• That she is an elderly woman.
• That she distracted them with her green hair and cloud dress because she wanted to conceal her actual age.

What hint does Rhonda give the children before they attempt to figure out the maze?

• "Soon, Kate, very soon. There remains one more test, but after that, whether you pass or fail, I promise you all a good supper. Fair enough?"
• "Some will find it quite difficult," said Rhonda. "But you should all be able to do it with your eyes closed.
• "Maybe, but it isn't really dangerous," Rhonda said, which did nothing for Sticky's confidence.
• "When I tell you to, each of you must go through the front door. At the very back of theh ouse is a staircase. You're to reach the staircase as quickly as possible, hurry up the stairs, and ring the bronze bell that hangs at the top. Speed is important, so don't dawdle. Any questions?"

What did Reynie figure out about the arrows in the maze?

• That the arrows that lead him out of the maze would be all the same color and all going in the same direction.
• That the arrows leading him out of the maze would all point in the same direction.
• That the only one you could know by touch were the blue arrows.
• That the only ones you could know by touch were the yellow wiggly shaped arrows.

How did Sticky figure out how to get out of the maze?

• He didn't figure out how to use the arrows so he didn't figure out how to get out of the maze.
• He remembered how he got through the maze the first time and simply retraced his steps.
• He followed the yellow wiggly arrows like Reynie did.
• He went through the heating ducts like Kate did.
