The BOOK HUNT is a contest presented by MyAnonaMouse in celebration of their 9 year anniversary this December. What better way to celebrate than to have a BOOK HUNT! It will test your ability to solve clues & rhymes to find the books. There are prizes for Mice who can find all 9 books.

Many Mice have requested that the clues and answers be posted so here they are!


1. The Color Purple by Alice Walker
roses are red, violets are blue, when you mix them, what is the hue?

2. War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy
Find the works, that straddle the diametrically opposed two, worlds described by the Buddha,
and by Sun Tzu

3. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
This clues first part is the theme of every story since creation and full of gall,
none of us are free from it, and yet no one sees it before the fall

The second part, is why good apples get left because of they're skin,
when things are measured for what's without, rather than what's within.

4. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

The first part is a sorcerer of healing, good with drug and draft,
named after a creature, fabled for it's eerie laugh.

The second part is a mystery, leaving no shadow nor making a sound,
children try to be like him in a game, for he isn't easily found


5. The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer

This word you shall find in two parts, one in an arena outside,
Where the sound of hooves beat the ground, as throngs watch little men ride.
Not full throttle nor slow, they go at steady speed,

The second part is what's done when breath stops, and when the body has no more blood to bleed.

6. Life of Pi by yann Martel
Forgive me for describing this memoir, of a character that goes on forever,
it's illogical and its ways run in circles, but could we understand the world without it? Never.

7. DUNE by Frank Herbert
Some say he was a mouse just like you, but he stood on two feet with eyes of blue.
He traveled the world in an unusual way, determined his place would have it's day
NOTE: This clue is different. It relates to the main character of a specific book you must find.


8. The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka
Hard to imagine oneself as a fly, but so much harder is this, it turns saint from sinner, it buds
butterfly from chrysalis.

9. Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
The first part you will see when you look through the eyes, of a mother and her child, of a playwright at his poem, at a sculptor at his work of pride. The second is something, no man can claim to be, where people fantasize living, and what sailors hope for in a stormy sea.
