One sunny morning, as the twins were getting ready for school, they heard a mysterious riddle coming from outside their bedroom window. Emma and Ethan quickly rushed outside to investigate.

The voice echoed, “I have a hundred legs but cannot walk, I have a long spine but do not talk. What am I?” The twins looked at each other and smiled. They knew exactly what to do. They grabbed their backpacks and followed the sound of the voice, which led them to the town's library. Inside the library, an old book lay open on a table. It was titled, “The Puzzling Enigma.” Emma and Ethan read the book and discovered that the riddle they heard was just the beginning of an exciting adventure.
