We are switching things up again this season, with a new type of challenge. You will be given a set of words and phrases, and you must match books to these phrases in one of four ways.
How to Fulfill the Prompts:
1. Phrase contains BOTH first letters of the author's first and last name
2. Phrase contains the first letter of the title (ignore or include A, An, and The)
3. Phrase is exemplified on the cover (your interpretation)
4. Phrase is found somewhere in the text (should be exact word)
