OH I did much better on this quiz and got 14 right! Apparently I paid more attention to the stories than I did to DD. Maybe not the wisest choice, then again. . .

I only got 12 out of 18. sad.gif I feel really...not smart. But I did remember almost everything, I just didn't remember the exact wording. Like for the first question I knew that the note said something like 'hoping you'll never need to use it' but I couldn't remember it exactly.

Nice quiz!

I got 14. I guess it's not too bad. I did pay more attention to the tales than to DD's notes... But I read the book ten days ago, I really should read more thouroughly...

I'd rather not say how..erm...excellent I did. Clearly I don't retain much after reading a story only once. Or I read too fast.
