That is fun and fiendish. (The perfect teaching combination in my opinion.)
I'm putting this in my Ideas to Adapt if Not Outright Steal file, in case I get a chance to teach with my own materials again in the future.

I always create one called "The Hoosier Cinderella" (so they have to find
an authority record for Cinderella and then figure out how to incorporate
Indiana in the subject headings) written by me (what to do with my name) and
illustrated by another faculty member whose name can be shortened
(Patricia McWilliams who supposedly illustrates children's books under Patty
McWilliams and adult books under Artiste -- I supply that information). They
have to create a bib record, find the uniform title for Cinderella, create
name authority records for me (such a lot can be done with my name -- La Donna
with and without the space, maiden name ...). Of course I don't tell them
they have to do all of that -- just that they need a bib record, and if
they can't find a name authority they have to create one.
Stir as needed!!
