Since yesterday’s game paid homage to Earth Day, I was hoping today’s round would be a nod to World Book Day, the most dreaded day in a parent’s diary, thanks to the tradition of children dressing up as fictional characters for school.
A friend of mine’s mother got the wrong day for this and had to spend the entire school day dressed as Voldemort while the rest of the school wore their uniforms.
Anyway, I digress. Instead of books and Harry Potter, we were invited to look up some words associated with ancient mythology; I know this now after googling, but at the time it seemed completely random.
