Match the story's line to its title. Granted this is more of a quiz than a survey, but the format seemed to go over well with the "Shakespeare or the Bible?" topic, so I decided to give it a try with well-known stories from childhood up through best selling adult literature. Many thanks to Harriet for suggesting I do this, and to noradolan and Nana1920 for their encouragement.
