This week's reading check questions are from chapters 3 - 5. If you like to pace your reading throughout the week, I suggest reading between 6 and 8 pages a night.
Questions:
1. Why were the soldiers frightened by the sight of the children?
2. Who had been telling Prince Caspian about the old days of Narnia? How does Caspian's uncle Miraz react when Caspian declares his fondness for the old days?
3. Who is Caspian's new tutor?
4. Why did Caspian's tutor take him to the castle tower in the middle of the night?
5. What does Caspian learn about his tutor's true identity?
6. Why do the Telmarines fear the sea and the woods?
7. What happens that prompts Doctor Cornelius to encourage Caspian to flee the castle?
8. What "greatest and most sacred treasure of Narnia" does Caspian take with him when he leaves? According to Doctor Cornelius, what power does this treasure hold?
9. How does Edmund account for the fact that Cair Paravel is in ruins even though the children left Narnia only a year earlier?
10. Early in Chapter 3, the Dwarf identifies himself as a "dangerous criminal." Given what we've learned so far from the Dwarf, what might his crime be?
11. Doctor Cornelius tells Caspian, "Everyone except your majesty knows that Miraz is a usurper." What does Doctor Cornelius mean? (Hint: You may need to use a dictionary to look up the word usurp.)
