Scavenger Book Hunt

 

 I saw this scavenger book tag on Zezee with Books blog and I thought it looked like a lot of fun. 

 It was originally created by booktuber The Library of Sarah

 

 Find a book with the letter "Z" in its title or the author's name. 

 It's been awhile since I've read it, but this book was pretty funny. (I haven't seen the movie.)

 Find a classic.

 This book is a classic, and the 1995 TV mini series is also.

 I haven't read this book yet, but I have read other Dana Girl books, and they're a lot of fun.

 Find something on your bookshelves that isn't a book.

 My bookshelves are also where I keep my records and movies and music.

I have other records besides Perry Como, but this is what I have a picture of.

  Find a book with an animal on the cover.

 This book is crazily than the movie, but it's a lot of fun.
