Here I am with the answers to the latest quiz. Everyone knew the author of the first quote. It was by CS Lewis, and it was from The Last Battle. So only Wol was 100% accurate.
The second quote was more challenging. Only Owl was anywhere near right. He had the author and the story right, but he neglected to mention that the title of the book from which it was taken is All Things Bright and Beautiful.
Time for quiz numero tres. Roo will be very surprised if Tigger doesn't at least know the author for this one.
"Several pounds of excitable St. Bernard puppy flung against her proved too much for Jo, and she sat down violently on the wet grass."

Literature Quiz #2
Hi everyone!!!
Y'all are pretty good at this!!! Everyone who's entered so far has been correct!!! Daddy and Tiggy are tied, because Tiggy knew the names of both books, but Daddy took the time to explain the plots, give the dogs' names, and state the authors.
Here's another round.
#1
" What looked funniest was the Dogs. During the gallop they had not been at all out of breath, but now, as they swarmed and wriggled upwards, there was plenty of spluttering and sneezing among them; and that was because they would keep barking, and every time they barked, they got their mouths and noses full of water. "
#2.
Well now, Clancy was lyin' by the fire and he rose up in a flash and he gave a bit of a wuff, so he did."
Love,
Rosie

Guess the Literary Source
Here's the first post in my new quiz series. To kick it off, I'm giving you not one, but TWO quotes to guess!
Anyone who lives with me should be able to get this one. :)
...foolish and absurd or not, they all plucked up hope and courage to carry on, just because a faithful little dog... was still watching with unbroken faith for his master to come home.
Here's the next one:
He corrected me respectfully, giving it as his opinion that the undersigned was not a tiny little dog, but well above the average in muscular development. In particular he drew attention to the animal's teeth.
Good luck, everyone!!!
