Owl Diaries Eva's Treetop Festival questions by chapter

We know this book well. Every question asks about something that happens in its chapter, a moment, a choice or a character, without giving away what comes next. One question per chapter, across all 7 chapters, and every one is editable before you print. The example answers under 3 of the chapters are the ones printed at the front of the booklet.

  1. Chapter 1

    Eva gets excited about the treetop festival and starts thinking of ideas. What does this chapter show about Eva’s personality, and what details help you know?

    Example answer: I think Eva is creative and full of energy. She gets excited quickly and comes up with lots of ideas for the festival. This shows she cares about making the event fun for everyone. It also shows that when Eva wants to do something, she works hard at it.

  2. Chapter 2

    Eva has many jobs to do for the festival. How does she try to keep track of everything, and what problems might happen if she does too much by herself?

  3. Chapter 3

    Choose one word that describes how Eva feels as the festival gets closer. What clues in the chapter helped you understand that feeling?

  4. Chapter 4

    Eva and her friends do not always see things the same way. How do their choices and actions affect the festival plans?

  5. Chapter 5

    What do you predict Eva will need to do to make the festival a success? Use events from the story to support your prediction.

    Example answer: I predict Eva will need to ask her friends for help instead of trying to do everything alone. Earlier in the story, she had many jobs and it seemed hard to keep them all under control. If she lets other owls help, the festival plans will probably go better. Teamwork would also help Eva feel less worried.

  6. Chapter 6

    What lesson about friendship or teamwork is Eva beginning to learn? Explain how the events in this chapter show that lesson.

  7. Chapter 7

    By the end of the story, what is your opinion of the way Eva handled the festival? What would you praise her for, and what advice would you give her for next time?

    Example answer: I think Eva did a good job because she really wanted the festival to be special. I would praise her for being determined and for not giving up when things were difficult. My advice would be for her to listen to her friends sooner and share the work. That way, everyone can feel included and the job will not feel so big.
