Well, it's been about a year since I taught this book to my seventh graders, and I don't have the book in front of me, so I'll give your quiz a shot from memory.



1. Billy is crying because he is unable to keep his promise to Old Dan and Little Anne. His hands ache too much from chopping. Unable to chop the tree down, he won't be able to catch the coon.



2. Grandpa thinks that every boy should chop down one big tree like that to build character.



3. Wearing coonskin caps was the fad that started back in the New England states.



4. The wind blows as Billy is wrapping his hands to make a final attack on the tree.



5. (don't remember) Torn shred of shirt?



6. Billy is convinced that God knocked down the tree for him.
