Description

Adventures in Ancient Egypt mixes fact and fiction for fast, funny and fascinating romps through the past. Kids will love the book's contemporary comic-book look with its zany illustrations, speech balloons and guidebook. Parents and teachers will love the well-researched story lines and solid factual information. In this book, the Binkerton twins, Josh and Emma, and their little sister, Libby, stumble into the Good Times Travel Agency and take a once-in-a-lifetime trip back to Ancient Egypt!

Editorial Reviews

Kids are sure to devour these lively books.

Bailey delivers not only a fast-paced story but also a fun way to convey information about Egyptian life. The busy cartoon illustrations support both the fiction and the facts.
