TIP: This is a fun challenge to use the "add book/author" option (located just above the comment box) and selecting "cover."
Want to make this challenge a little harder try doing the Colors of the Rainbow First (R-O-Y-G-B-I-V)
*Finished the challenge already? Double your fun and redo tasks 1 through 12, but instead of the cover, find the colors in the title!
**Finished again? A triple challenge would be to find books with all of these colors in their covers AND in their titles.
I will try and get this updated by Monday! You are all doing great!
