TRIPLE TREKKER

For each challenge in this exercise, you will be given three web sites to visit. All three of them will have something to do with a famous person, place, or thing. You will need to figure out what the common elements are to figure out who, where, or what the secret person, place, or thing is. This won't be easy. For example, don't expect to go to three web sites about Raven Simone, if she is the secret person. Instead, you may be sent to a site about singers, a site about child stars, and a site about the Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven.

Try this practice round: You are looking for a famous character from a book.
