<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">It’s because the hezaler shook a bony finger craftily and asked for the wine first before talking.

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">In other situation, Artemis promised to give back her powers.

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;"> The fairy was already curling in pain, so she gave the book in trade for the water of faith and the booster. <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">11) Why did Butler take the Book"reverentially" (line130) ?

<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">It’s because the book has wafer thin pages. <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">12) Why did Artemis ask to have the Book for only thirty minutes? <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">It’s because that he knows sprite wouldn’t allow him to bring the book back, so he persuaded her to lend him the book not only have it for few minutes and trade it with something worthwhile for the fairy.

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;"> He knows how to get things done by his own way, the writer made Artemis sound smart.

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;"> Artemis preferred not to take chances with information. Airport security equipment had been known to wipe many a vital disk. So he instructed his aide to transfer the file to his portable phone and from there email it to Fowl Manor in Dublin. Before the thirty minutes were up, the file containing every symbol in the Fairy Book was sitting safely in the Fowl server.
