Don’t forget any books used for Wheel Towers and Chipmunks cannot count towards Page towers 😉

Beth wrote: "For Task Set 3 -- is that 16 books? 4 sets of 4?"

Cut and paste error, it’s just 4 books

Amy wrote: "For the task set #3, can the books be Christmas related or only Thanksgiving/Diwali?"

From the Captains group

Q: Is Thanksgiving really winter?
A: It's in November, which is the month when people start legit asking about winter plans etc etc and driving me potty about Christmas, so I've included it. Hallowe'en and Bonfire/Guy Fawkes night are not winter holidays. Let's say, if it the holiday is between 15 Nov and 15 Feb it counts as winter.
