Siblings Jack and Annie have found a magic treehouse loaded with books that takes them to places in the books. In this book, Jack and Annie meet a dead Egyptian queen looking for the Book of the Dead so she can get to the Next Life. The two must navigate a pyramid’s maze and an ancient riddle.

Loved the facts presented with fiction. This is an easy read and will get kids interested in history as well as following Jack and Annie’s adventure. The art is vibrant and energetic and will totally hook the reader.
