Dawn can wee be used for short when referring to people. he is one of the wee people?

[~Melissa~]

Hi Dawn - can you see enough of the shirt on the cover for it to work for girl in red - I checked it on Amazon for a 'larger' picture to see the red top under her jacket...

If it is what every one calls her I'd say it works... and I'd also say its a bit unusual to have EVERYONE call you by your last name especially her dad.

I'd consider that short.

My computer it looks like an orange shirt not at all close to red. I'll let others chime in just in case its just my computer. Does anyone else see red?

Sorry, I can't include your last bit since I'm horrible at copying and pasting on my phone. Not sure if your last bit meant you were really ok with it or not, but if this helps... I am about to start book #8(if it works this week of courese) and I could not tell you what her first name was since they have only used it a couple times. Not sure if anyone else has read the series has the same experience as me.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

sorry I wasn't clear yes Heather I'll take it for an unusual name.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

For Forest we are looking for the noun, but it could be a comparison of something not just trees.

The simple definition is a large area of land covered with trees.

I have to say the computer picture stinks - I actually have the paperback at home on my shelf and it is red. No worries - I'll find it elsewhere :)

[Heather ~ Marceline]

Thanks Dawn, I was just making certain :)

I know that the screen really messes with some books. can that's why I offered if someone else can see it, or has a copy I'll take it.

[~Melissa~]

If others say yes I will save it for another week :) - doesn't work with this weeks words but could later. So if any one has the paperback version that would be great!

What about "key word" for key?

[Jennifer H]

One more question...would this work for long hair?

She'd taken an inordinate amount of time with her hair this morning, brushing it out and letting it fall to her shoulders,

[Turtlecollector Dennis]

Does a fictional place have to be specific town, city etc?

"It was told by the Mouse from Alice in Wonderland, the Mouse she met swimming in the pool of her own tears."

Or could it be something generic like a school? There is an excerpt from a book a character is reading:
"You have saved the reputation of the school!" or a description of the plot of the book: "The plans were concealed inside hollowed-out vegetable marrows."

[Angie ~aka Reading Machine~]

Would this work for short person:"Short, slight figure on a hooded parka?"

[JenniferJ]

would this cover work for girl in red?

If the cover wont work it also has a passage inside that says something like

"I took inventory of what I had on...jeans and a red shirt..." It's a girl talking.

[Rosina]

would this be acceptable for short person

seriously, you little midget, you're funny

[Katya]

Will Muskrat be okay for Rat:

Per Wikipedia:
"The muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus), the only species in genus Ondatra and tribe Ondatrini, is a medium-sized semiaquatic rodent native to North America, and introduced in parts of Europe, Asia, and South America...Muskrats are referred to as "rats" in a general sense because they are medium-sized rodents with an adaptable lifestyle and an omnivorous diet."

And is "Fairy Princess" good for fairy?

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Jennifer ♔Princess Penguin♔ wrote: "What about "key word" for key?"

hmmmm, I think context would matter. The definition on page 1 says it needs to unlock something. So if it were the key word in unlocking a riddle that could work.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Long hair is a matter of opinion, if to the shoulders is long to you I'll take it.

all of those examples are fictional places. great outside the box thinking.

Short, slight figure--- yes

Thanks, I found a more obvious one with Narnia too, so I have finally found a book with fictional place.

Thank you!

[Ghost in the Stacks]

Would Underworld be considered fictional place.?
Someone is reading a book about an Egyptian being released from the Underworld."Anubis was touched by the strength of their love. He said he would release Ankhenaten from the Underworld, and if he would find Nefertiti in the next life, he would grant them life, internal as the diamond heart"

Also for Hunter, can it be in the title? Nefertiti's Heart(Artifacts Hunter Book1)

I think in this book underworld would work, from reading the blurb. As long as it is set in a realistic world where some people don't really believe it exists then it would work as a fictional place. If it is set in a fantasy world where it does "really" exist then no it would not work.

And yes words can be part of the title. Hunter works.

Thanks. And no, they don't think it is an actual place. It's from a book in the book called Majycks of the Gods.

Would Woods work for Forest?

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Dyllan, The Brazuca Ekaterina wrote: "Would Woods work for Forest?"

as long as the definition is the same yes. Woods as in trees still standing in a group yes, looking over the variety of woods to choose for flooring no.

Would butterfly work for bug?

[Heather ~ Marceline]

Would speculating on "a little evil twin who lives in her helmet hair and makes her do evil, dirty things" count for a short person? I know I'm grasping here but I thought I'd ask. Thanks!

[Angie ~aka Reading Machine~]

Would little girl work for short person

OR

Tiny humaniod form for short person?

[JenniferJ]

Does fairy have to be an actual fairy or could it be something like "She has written a fairy tale book."

[Ghost in the Stacks]

Can, "pretty little blond" work for short person
Or"this little one knew. She Understood."
Or " I know your excited,little one"

[Danielle Book Boss]

"stole my breath" - THIEF?

[Danielle Book Boss]

HOVERCRAFT = FLYING SHIP?

[Jenne]

Would this work for thief

Trixie stole his thunder

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Heather ~ Marceline wrote: "Would speculating on "a little evil twin who lives in her helmet hair and makes her do evil, dirty things" count for a short person? I know I'm grasping here but I thought I'd ask. Thanks!"

It could work.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "Would butterfly work for bug?"

Yes.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

both.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

JenniferJ wrote: "Does fairy have to be an actual fairy or could it be something like "She has written a fairy tale book.""

It's kind of iffy but I let other people claim fairy tale, so yes.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Abbie wrote: "Can, "pretty little blond" work for short person

Or " I know your excited,little one""

I think more context would be needed.

Pretty little blond could just mean skinny.
little one, as long as it is referring to someone shorter it would work, not just some one younger. Most likely but out of context it's hard to tell.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Danielle Book Boss wrote: ""stole my breath" - THIEF?"


It's a little far fetched.... If you can't find better and as long as it refers to the person doing the stealing it could work.

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Danielle Book Boss wrote: "HOVERCRAFT = FLYING SHIP?"

Yes

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Jenne wrote: "Would this work for thief

Almost the same as Danielles above, a little far fetched would you really call that person a thief, later on?

If it's the best you can get I'll take it.
