Another fantastic installment in The Secret Explorers series. Readers will enjoy this mission as Gustavo and Kiki are tasked to stop the Cairo Museum from closing down. They have to travel back in time to ancient Egypt and stop the tomb robbers before it is too late. Young readers will enjoy this adventure as this duo learn a lot about ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics, the late Pharaoh and his tomb of treasures, and how mummies were made back in time!

Very cute story and something I'm considering getting for my cousins. My only complaint is that the hair and skin tone of the Egyptians doesn't feel historically accurate.

A fun and informative book, perfect for readers who enjoy the Magic Treehouse series. Each member of the Secret Explorers club has a unique ability. For this adventure, Gustavo and Kiki will use their knowledge of history and engineering to keep tomb robbers from stealing artifacts from the Great Pyramid.

The kids solve their own problems and work together to find solutions. During the story, the reader learns life in Egypt. The end has a section that describes the mummification process, contains a glossary and a quiz.

A great addition to any school and public library for the early chapter book collection. The characters are diverse and have a focus on STEAM.
