| Who was the littlun who played a little and cried often? | Percival |
| What did the littluns do for most of the day? | They ate most of the day, picking fruit where they could reach it. They were afraid at night and huddled together for comfort. They played in the sand and created sand castles. |
| Who fed the little ones fruit? | Simon |
| Why do the boys paint their faces with dazzle-paint? | The paint is for hunting like in the war. |
| What attitude does Jack develop with the mask of paint on? | It compels him to do crazy things because he was no longer himself but an awesome stranger. Jack hid behind the mask because it liberated him from shame and self-consciousness |
| Why doesn't the passing ship spot the boys? | They let the fire on top of the mountain go out |
| Why is the fire allowed to go out? | The twins who were responsible for sustaining the fire were needed in the hunt or there would not have been enough people for a ring |
| What are the hunters preoccupied with? | killing the pig. They killed the pig and cut its throat and spilled its blood. |
| How does Ralph reclaim his position as chief? | Ralph remained silent even though Jack gave orders, sang, whistled, and threw remarks at the silent Ralph. Ralph would not move. He did not do anything and stood looking at the ashes at his feet. They had to build the fire 3 yards away. |
