Weekly Challenge 6: MI Library Quest

6th through 12th graders are invited to participate in MI Library Quest. Search library websites for tools to save King Thaddeus Brockwright III's kingdom from the dreaded bronze dragon. Succeed and you'll be entered to win a gift card to a local business or bookstore of your choice.  

This is a state-wide quest.  Prizes are being awarded by each library, so someone (or a few someones) from our library will win a prize!

You can read King Thaddeus's plea for help below and then get started at mi.gov/MiLibraryQuest.  

I am King Thaddeus Brockwright the Third and I request your aid in ridding my kingdom of the dreaded bronze dragon. The destruction and devastation to our villages is horrendous, and we can’t hold out much longer. We know the dragon is strong so you will need to gather additional supplies for your journey. Luckily dragons are predictable and after a week of eating, it will take a full month of rest to digest its full stomach. This means you have exactly 30 days to retrieve your items and face the dragon before he is awake again at full strength.

Each of my villages has prepared and hidden items on their library website to help you along your journey; you will need to retrieve at least 23 of these items before you will be able to face the dragon. Collect your 23 items and log their names under the name of the village library where you collected them in the Dragon Eradication Inventory in order to proceed. Once the dragon is defeated, each province will be distributing awards randomly among the participating adventurers. 

Good luck, and come back victorious!

The Quest ends on July 30, 2020.
