25.3 - Sophie's Task: May Day Celebration

One of my memories of this time of year from my childhood was celebrating May Day at primary school. This task is based on some of those traditions.

Select 2 options and read a book for each.
Required: State the options.

Option 1. May Queen
Each year one of the 5 year old girls would be crowned May Queen. I never had this honour but my sister did.
Read a book from this list: Sister Novels
Required: State the page where your book can be found.

Option 2. Maypole dancing
The main event was the maypole dancing. We'd create patterns from the coloured ribbons by skipping round. These ribbons were blue, green, red and yellow.
Read a book with ONE of these colour names: blue, green, red, yellow found intact in the title or subtitle.
ex. Blue Bloods, Greenmantle, Kindred, Half of a Yellow Sun

Option 3. Morris dancing
The boys in the oldest class would also take part in a Morris dance.
Read a book with a title of at least 3 words where all the title initials can be found in MORRIS DANCING. Subtitles may be used or ignored.
