I found this on one of the blogs I follow, Books are the New Black who found it at One Book More. It was originally created by Reviews from the Stacks, and the idea is to spell the month using the first letter of book titles
November: Food or Autumn Decorations on the Cover
I've done challenges with food on the cover before, but - of course - most of them don't help with the spelling of the month November. If you'd still like to see them, here is one:
Top Ten Books with Food on their Covers
In order to get all the letters, I used books that had food or eating in the name of the title or in the picture on the cover. I also used a German book. I think I am allowed since I read books in many different languages, so I should benefit from that. I always have to think about the time my son was in the Boy Scouts (an English speaking group) and he got a patch for his German and other foreigners got patches for their language. One of the English speaking boys complained and said they had to take a test in order to get a patch like that. The Boy Scout leader said, okay, we can do the whole session in German or Danish, because that's what these boys do all the time, they use a foreign language in order to participate. There were no more words about that.
