Jeopardy-style trivia questions about children's literature. All answers to be given in the form of a question (e.g. What is X? or Who is Y?). Are they answerable? EDIT: You can answer the questions too!
This Oregon-born author is best known as the creator of the characters Ramona Quimby, Henry Huggins, and Ralph S. Mouse.
This Canadian province is the setting of L. M. Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables.
Mathematician Charles Lutwidge Dodgson is better known by this pseudonym, under which he wrote fantastical fiction.
This book was a result of a bet that Dr. Seuss couldn’t write a story with only 50 unique words.
This J. M. Barrie novel opens with the line “All children, except one, grow up.”
The second half of Louisa May Alcott's novel Little Women was originally published under this title.
In L. Frank Baum's novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Dorothy travels to the Emerald City wearing shoes made out of this precious material.
Although not the first published of C. S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia, this novel comes first chronologically within the stories' timeline.
This Mark Twain novel was the first book ever written using a typewriter. Just found out that the answer I had for this was incorrect. Here is an alternate question: In E. B. White's novel Charlotte's Web, Charlotte greets Wilbur with this "fancy way of saying hello or good morning."
Roald Dahl's heroine Matilda Wormwood declares this Frances Hodgson Burnett novel to be her favorite book in the children's section of the library.

Vladimir Nabokov’s Brutally Honest Opinions on 63 of the “Greatest” Writers to Ever Write (1973). I got this from a literature FB group; I can’t verify its authenticity. Even if the source is authentic, it seems to me a very subjective exercise, so take it in that spirit.
Auden, W. H. Not familiar with his poetry, but his translations contain deplorable blunders.
Austen, Jane. Great.
Balzac, Honoré de. Mediocre. Fakes realism with easy platitudes.
Barbusse, Henri. Second-rate. A tense-looking but really very loose type of writing.
Beckett, Samuel. Author of lovely novellas and wretched plays.
Bergson, Henri. A favorite between the ages of 20 and 40, and thereafter.
Borges, Jorge Luis. A favorite. How freely one breathes in his marvelous labyrinths! Lucidity of thought, purity of poetry. A man of infinite talent.
Brecht, Bertolt. A nonentity, means absolutely nothing to me.
Brooke, Rupert. A favorite between the ages of 20 and 40, but no longer.
Camus, Albert. Dislike him. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up. A nonentity, means absolutely nothing to me. Awful.
Carroll, Lewis. Have always been fond of him. One would like to have filmed his picnics. The greatest children's story writer of all time.
Cervantes, Miguel de. Don Quixote. A cruel and crude old book.
Cheever, John. “The Country Husband.” A particular favorite. Satisfying coherence.
Chekhov, Anton. A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, and thereafter. Talent, but not genius. Love him dearly, but cannot rationalize that feeling.
Chesterton, G. K. A favorite between the ages of 8 and 14. Essentially a writer for very young people. Romantic in the large sense.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. A favorite between the ages of 8 and 14, but no longer. Essentially a writer for very young people. Romantic in the large sense.
Conrad, Joseph. A favorite between the ages of 8 and 14. Essentially a writer for very young people. Certainly inferior to Hemingway and Wells. Intolerable souvenir-shop style, romanticist clichés. Nothing I would care to have written myself. In mentality and emotion, hopelessly juvenile. Romantic in the large sense. Slightly bogus.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor. Dislike him. A cheap sensationalist, clumsy and vulgar. A prophet, a claptrap journalist and a slapdash comedian. Some of his scenes are extraordinarily amusing. Nobody takes his reactionary journalism seriously.
Dreiser, Theodore. Dislike him. A formidable mediocrity.
Eliot, T. S. Not quite first-rate.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo. His poetry is delightful.
Faulkner, William. Dislike him. Writer of corncobby chronicles. To consider them masterpieces is an absurd delusion. A nonentity, means absolutely nothing to me.
Flaubert, Gustave. A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, and thereafter. Read complete works between 14 and 15.
Forster, E. M. Only read one of his novels (possibly A Passage to India?) and disliked it.
Freud, Sigmund. A figure of fun. Loathe him. Vile deceit. Freudian interpretation of dreams is charlatanic, and satanic, nonsense.
García Lorca, Federico. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up.
Gogol, Nikolai. Nobody takes his mystical didacticism seriously. At his worst, as in his Ukrainian stuff, he is a worthless writer; at his best, he is incomparable and inimitable. Loathe his moralistic slant, am depressed and puzzled by his inability to describe young women, deplore his obsession with religion.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel. A splendid writer.
Hemingway, Ernest. A writer of books for boys. Certainly better than Conrad. Has at least a voice of his own. Nothing I would care to have written myself. In mentality and emotion, hopelessly juvenile. Loathe his works about bells, balls, and bulls. The Killers. Delightful, highly artistic. Admirable. The Old Man and the Sea. Wonderful. The description of the iridescent fish and rhythmic urination is superb.
Housman, A. E. A favorite between the ages of 20 and 40, and thereafter.
James, Henry. Dislike him rather intensely, but now and then his wording causes a kind of electric tingle. Certainly not a genius.
Joyce, James. Great. A favorite between the ages of 20 and 40, and thereafter. Let people compare me to Joyce by all means, but my English is patball to Joyce's champion game. A genius.
I. Ulysses. A divine work of art. Greatest masterpiece of 20th century prose. Towers above the rest of Joyce's writing. Noble originality, unique lucidity of thought and style. Molly's monologue is the weakest chapter in the book. Love it for its lucidity and precision.
II. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Never liked it. A feeble and garrulous book.
III. Finnegans Wake. A formless and dull mass of phony folklore, a cold pudding of a book. Conventional and drab, redeemed from utter insipidity only by infrequent snatches of heavenly intonations. Detest it. A cancerous growth of fancy word-tissue hardly redeems the dreadful joviality of the folklore and the easy, too easy, allegory. Indifferent to it, as to all regional literature written in dialect. A tragic failure and a frightful bore.
Kafka, Franz. The Metamorphosis. Second-greatest masterpiece of 20th century prose.
Kazantzakis, Nikos. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up.
Keats, John. A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, and thereafter.
Kipling, Rudyard. A favorite between the ages of 8 and 14. Essentially a writer for very young people. Romantic in the large sense.
Lawrence, D. H. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up. Mediocre. Fakes realism with easy platitudes. Execrable.
Lowell, Robert. Not a good translator. A greater offender than Auden.
Mandelshtam, Osip. A wonderful poet, the greatest in Soviet Russia. His poems are admirable specimens of the human mind at its deepest and highest. Not as good as Blok. His tragic fate makes his poetry seem greater than it actually is.
Mann, Thomas. Dislike him. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up.
Maupassant, Guy de. Certainly not a genius.
Maugham, W. Somerset. Mediocre. Fakes realism with easy platitudes. Certainly not a genius.
Melville, Herman. Love him. One would like to have filmed him at breakfast, feeding a sardine to his cat.
Marx, Karl. Loathe him.
Milton, John. A genius.
Pasternak, Boris. An excellent poet, but a poor novelist. Doctor Zhivago. Detest it. Melodramatic and vilely written. To consider it a masterpiece is an absurd delusion. Pro-Bolshevist, historically false. A sorry thing, clumsy, trivial, melodramatic, with stock situations and trite coincidences.
Pirandello, Luigi. Never cared for him.
Plato. Not particularly fond of him.
Poe, Edgar Allan. A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, but no longer. One would like to have filmed his wedding.
Pound, Ezra. Definitely second-rate. A total fake. A venerable fraud.
Proust, Marcel. A favorite between the ages of 20 and 40, and thereafter. In Search of Lost Time. The first half is the fourth-greatest masterpiece of 20th-century prose.
Pushkin, Alexander. A favorite between the ages of 20 and 40, and thereafter. A genius.
Rimbaud, Arthur. A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, and thereafter.
Robbe-Grillet, Alain. Great. A favorite. How freely one breathes in his marvelous labyrinths! Lucidity of thought, purity of poetry. Magnificently poetical and original.
Salinger, J. D. By far one of the finest artists in recent years.
Sartre, Jean-Paul. Even more awful than Camus.
Shakespeare, William. Read complete works between 14 and 15. One would like to have filmed him in the role of the King's Ghost. His verbal poetic texture is the greatest the world has ever known, and immensely superior to the structure of his plays as plays. It is the metaphor that is the thing, not the play. A genius.
Sterne, Laurence. Love him.
Tolstoy, Leo. A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, and thereafter. Read complete works between 14 and 15. Nobody takes his utilitarian moralism seriously. A genius.
I. Anna Karenina. Incomparable prose artistry. The supreme masterpiece of 19th-century literature.
II. The Death of Ivan Ilyich. A close second to Anna Karenina.
III. War and Peace. A little too long. A rollicking historical novel written for the general reader, specifically for the young. Artistically unsatisfying. Cumbersome messages, didactic interludes, artificial coincidences. Uncritical of its historical sources.
Turgenev, Ivan. Talent, but not genius.
Updike, John. By far one of the finest artists in recent years. Like so many of his stories that it is difficult to choose one.
Wells, H. G. A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, and thereafter. A great artist, my favorite writer when I was a boy. His sociological cogitations can be safely ignored, but his romances and fantasies are superb. A far greater artist than Conrad. A writer for whom I have the deepest admiration.
Wilde, Oscar. Rank moralist and didacticist. A favorite between the ages of 8 and 14. Essentially a writer for very young people. Romantic in the large sense.
Wolfe, Thomas. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up.

“In practical living Illumination follows both Intuition and Idealism. Our intuition helps us to form a series of steps to climb. Each step in turn is an ideal; each ideal is more advanced, and more satisfying to our highest psychic self. An ideal may start with health, with personal well-being. Then it may advance to a consideration of the welfare of others, the service of society and then gradually broaden with greater understanding. The idealism prepares the consciousness for Illumination.” Ralph M. Lewis

"Se desejas encontrar um místico não limites a tua busca a mosteiros e a templos, mas observa as estradas e os caminhos, as cidades, as aldeias e o bulício dos grandes centros cosmopolitas do mundo. Quando encontres alguém que é trabalhador, estudioso, compassivo, querido por amigos e vizinhos, tolerante nos seus pontos de vista religioso e capaz de ensinar a magnificência e omnipotência de Deus nas coisas mais simples, achaste um místico.
Com estas qualidades não interessa se está vestido com uma túnica sacerdotal ou um fato, não deixa de ser um místico."
Ralph M. Lewis

LUCY’S THIN BLUE LINE
Lucy and Law Enforcement ~ Part 1
Tumblr media
For a simple housewife and a bandleader, Lucy and Ricky got involved with the police on a surprising number of occasions. Here’s a line-up of Lucy’s encounters with the men in blue. 
Tumblr media
“Liz Learns To Drive” (1948) ~ Liz (Lucille Ball) goes to the police station to get her driver’s license. The officer is played by Frank Nelson.
NELSON: “Name?” LIZ: “Elizabeth Cugat.” NELSON: “Address?” LIZ: “321 Bundy.” NELSON: “Race?” LIZ: “Of course not!  I don’t even have a driver’s license!”
After much rhetorical to-ing and fro-ing, he takes her fingerprints and gives her the eye test:
NELSON: “Read the letters on the wall over there.” LIZ: “M-E-N.”
Later in the complicated plot, Liz finds herself back at the police station, this time being questioned by Sergeant Lewis (Herb Vigran). She’s a suspect in a murder case!
Tumblr media
“Safe Driving Week” (1950) ~ Liz is pulled over by a motorcycle cop (Sheldon Leonard), although she’s unclear why. He says that Liz made the wrong arm signal when turning left. When Liz asks what he is writing, he facetiously calls it a story for Reader’s Digest about ‘The Most Unforgettable Person I’ve Ever Met’!  Naturally, it is a traffic ticket. Later, Liz passes a car on the wrong side of the road because she’s three feet from the left curb!  A policeman pulls them over - the same officer who issued Liz the ticket. To explain her driving on the left, Liz decides to adopt a British accent. 
LIZ: “Pip-pip, cheerio, hallo there, Bobbie!”
The Officer tests her by asking her to sing the British Anthem. Liz sings “London Bridge is Falling Down.” The policeman insists on driving the car away from the curb, but runs over his own motorcycle in the process!  Liz drives away, leaving the motorcycle cop in tears, clutching only his handlebars. 
Tumblr media
“New Neighbors” (1952) ~ Believing their new neighbors are dangerous spies, Lucy forms a militia and calls the police. Sergeant Morton (Allen Jenkins) is nearly killed when they open fire at the sound of the doorbell!
LUCY: “These people are agents of some foreign government!”  SERGEANT MORTON: “What’s their name?”  LUCY: “O’Brien!”
Morton apathetically ask if she's been nipping at the cooking sherry.
Tumblr media
David Allen Curtis Jenkins (Sergeant Morton) made a career out of playing policemen and tough guys in films throughout the '30s and '40s including Five Came Back (1939) with Lucille Ball. This was the first of his three appearances as a policeman on “I Love Lucy.”  From 1961-62, Jenkins voice Officer Dribble on the animated series “Top Cat”. 
Tumblr media
“The Courtoom” (1952) ~ Robert B. Williams played the Bailiff. Williams was a busy Hollywood day player who had recurring roles on "Dennis the Menace" and "Hazel." His last role was as Garth Gimble Sr. (Martin Mull's father) on "Fernwood Tonight" in 1977.
Tumblr media
“Lucy Goes to the Hospital” (1953) ~ Ricky creates pandemonium at the hospital by showing up for the birth of his son in full Voodoo make-up!  Ralph Montgomery plays the policeman called to the scene. He had appeared with Lucille Ball in the 1949 film Sorrowful Jones.
Tumblr media
“Ricky and Fred are TV Fans” (1953) ~ When they are caught stealing from a diner cash register and trying to cut the wires to their apartment building, Lucy and Ethel are hauled down to the station (Precinct 31) by Officer Jenkins (Allen Jenkins) where they encounter Desk Sergeant Nelson (Frank Nelson). This is not the first time these actors have worn blue for Desilu - nor the last. 
Tumblr media
“The Girls Go Into Business” (1953) ~ Emory Parnell plays the cop on the beat. Although this is his only series appearance, the veteran character actor was in three films with Lucille Ball and seven with William Frawley.  
Tumblr media
“Equal Rights” (1953) ~ The arresting officers are played by Fred Aldrich (left), who appeared in four other episodes, and Louis Nicoletti, who was a veteran of 15 episodes. 
Tumblr media
When Ricky and Fred are jailed, the police officer in the final scene is Richard Reeves, who played Bill Foster for two episodes, but was also seen as the tall Indian in “The Indian Show” (1953).
Tumblr media
“Too Many Crooks” (1953) ~ When the building is in an uproar over the identity of Madam X, a policeman arrives to sort things out. Once again, the officer on the scene is played by Allen Jenkins. 
Tumblr media
“Tennessee Bound” (1955) ~ While driving too quickly through Tennessee, the gang is arrested by the Sheriff of Bent Fork, played by Will Wright. He previously played Mr. Walters, the locksmith from Yonkers in “The Handcuffs” (1953). In 1949, he appeared with Lucille Ball in the film Miss Grant Takes Richmond.
Tumblr media
“Lucy Visits Graumans” (1955) ~ While trying to steal John Wayne’s footprints, Lucy and Ethel are interupted by two cops on the beat, who indulge themselves trying to fit their feet into the cement shoe prints of celebrities. Clarence Straight and Ben Neims play the policemen. This is just one of many law enforcement officials Straight played throughout his career. Neims also played an officer (of another sort) on the S.S. Consitution in “Bon Voyage” (1956). His final role was as a Police Chief in the 1974 film Dirty Mary Crazy Larry. 
Tumblr media
“The Great Train Robbery” (1956) ~ The plainclothes Police Detective is played by Joseph Crehan, who had previously appeared with Lucille Ball in There Goes My Girl (1937), Ziegfeld Follies (1947), and The Fuller Brush Girl (1950). Throughout his fifty year screen career he played Ulysses S. Grant nine times!
Tumblr media
“Paris at Last” (1956) ~ Lucy is implicated in a conterfeiting scheme and arrested. Trevor Ward plays the gendarme who arrests Lucy for passing the fake Francs. He had just appeared as the Cockney groom at the English country estate in “The Fox Hunt” (1956) two episodes earlier. In real life Ward was not French, American, or English – he was Welsh!  
Tumblr media
At the police station, two more gendarmes are introduced. Ramsay Hill plays the police desk sergeant who only speaks French. This is his one and only role on the series, but he served as technical adviser on the 1947 film Lured starring Lucille Ball..Johnny Mylong plays the gendarme who speaks both French and German. He soon returns to the series as the Casino Manager in “Lucy Goes To Monte Carlo” (1956).
Tumblr media
“Lucy’s Bicycle Trip” (1956) ~ Biking along the Med, Lucy encounters Border Control Officers for Italy and France. Henry Dar Boggia (left) plays the Italian Border Guard. Francis Ravel (in the booth) plays the French Border Guard.  Felix Romano plays the Italian Border Guard who comes on duty in the episode’s final moments.  For the record, Border Guards are considered Law Enforcement Officials in both France and Italy. 
Tumblr media
“Return Home from Europe” (1956) ~ Frank Nelson plays the Customs Officer who tries to solve the mystery of the cheese / baby. Nelson will soon take on his second recurring role on the series as Ralph Ramsey. A Customs Officer is considered a  federal law enforcement officer.
Tumblr media
“Visitor from Italy” (1956) ~ James Flavin plays the Immigration Officer searghing for Mario (Jay Novello). Flavin also appeared with Novello in “Lucy and the Safe Cracker” (1962) where he played a cop named Sergeant Wilcox. He returned two episodes later to play Sergeant Wilcox again in another bank-themed episode, “Lucy and the Bank Scandal” (1963). Flavin appeared in four films with Lucille Ball, including playing a police sergeant in Without Love (1945). During his long career he played so many officers of the law that his IMDB photo is of him in a police uniform!  
Tumblr media
“Lucy Hunts Uranium” (1958) ~ Racing through the Nevada desert the Ricardos and Fred MacMurray are pulled over by a motorcyle cop in this press photo for the episode. 
Tumblr media
“Lucy Goes to Mexico” (1958) ~ Returning to San Diego, Lucy and Ethel get stopped by a Border Guard played by Charles Lane, who suspects they may be smugglers. 
Tumblr media
In the opening scene, a Tijuana traffic cop tries to keep order when a donkey painted like a zebra rests in the middle of a busy street!  The actor appears uncredited. 
Tumblr media
“Lucy Upsets the Williams Household” (1959) ~ Lucy and Desi play the Ricardos on “Make Room for Daddy” aka “The Danny Thomas Show”.  Lucy gets in trouble with the law when out on a shopping spree. The policeman is played by an uncredited performer.
