🚨 BREAKING NEWS: THE MYSTERY BEGINS! 🚨

Our "Unearth a Story" Summer Reading Program has begun! We were right in the middle of getting things started when a special broadcast interrupted our library team. πŸ¦–πŸŽ₯ We wanted to share the fun with our community so you could see what the Iowa Library for the Blind and Print Disabled Headquarter Zoom Room is up to this summer!

Our favorite blue Triceratops, Digby, is officially on the move! But don't worry, he left behind an exclusive clue straight from his travel journal to help us track him down. πŸ•΅οΈβ€β™‚οΈπŸ—ΊοΈ

Can our young dino-detectives solve the puzzle? Here is what we know so far:
🦴 He is visiting a massive excavation site.
πŸ§€ The area is famous for delicious cheese.
πŸ₯ He is eating warm, gooey, almond-filled Dutch letters!

Grab your Explorer Packs, watch with your family, and drop your guesses in the comments below! Where do you think Digby is hiding? πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡
