Jan | 21026 comments Interactive Alphabet I Spy Cover Game TAKE TWO
Ongoing


Need to start a new I Spy Game due to running out of space. Let's walk our way through the alphabet while we "I Spy" things A-Z on the covers of the books we are reading.

✤I will start us off with a book that has something on the cover that starts with the letter A.
✤ The next person can claim a book with something that starts with the letter B on the cover. When claiming the letter, please let us know what item you are claiming that starts with the appropriate letter, POST THE COVER and include the next letter that is up for grabs.
✤ We will continue through the alphabet. When we hit Z, we will start over again.
✤ We can be creative with the items, for example using adjectives along with nouns - especially for the difficult letters.
✤ Please return, letting us know when you have completed the book you have claimed.
✤ All forms of books are accepted and there is no page limit for this challenge. You may only claim one book at a time.

Here we go . . .

I learned as a young girl, when we only had a small local library in our town and no books stores. It was read the books they had in a particular series or not read them at all. I still tend to pick the ones with the most interesting description first, then go back later and try the rest of the series if I want. Usually doesn't matter much, if at all.

Next Up: G

message 26: by Barb (new)

Barb | 1651 comments Finished C for chowder, but only finished the book to use it for several challenge spots. I've come to realize that books with badly misbehaving dogs just aren't my cup of tea, even if the dog is only a minor 'character' in the story.
