PHASE I for Kids (May 26–June 7)
THE DISCOVERY
Beneath the library, there are secret tunnels.
One day, workers were digging down there when they found something strange.
It was not a rock.
It was a bone.
A HUGE bone!
Arthur H. Hammond came to see it. He was so excited that he brought helpers to the library: Dr. Stone, Dr. Fern, Dr. Reed, and Nedrick Vale.
Together, they are digging, looking for fossils, and trying to discover what is hiding under the library.
And now they need you!
You are an Expedition Trainee. Your job is to read, explore, and help the team.
The dig has begun.
What will we find next?
