Could someone explain to me the first and last categories?
Mary wrote: "Could someone explain to me the first and last categories?"For the colors, you read a book where at least 50% of the cover is the specific color listed.
For the spell-out, you spell a word using the author's name (first or last) or title or series name. If the title begins with "A", "An" or "The", you have to use the second word. Here's an example from the summer challenge:
