Finding a way to Ancient Egypt, helping to build a pyramid, and someone beheading statues? Will John and Sarah figure it out?
John and Sarah
John and Sarah are the main characters in this adventure. He is the youngest sibling at ten years old and she is the oldest at twelve years old. It is the start of summer vacation and around their last few days in Colorado. They live in Maryland. John will be starting fifth grade and Sarah will be starting seventh grade. Sarah wants to explore the cave that transports them to Ancient Egypt and she wants to stay there. John doesn't want to do either.
What I like about John is that he is the responsible one, who doesn't like doing things they shouldn't. I think it's cool that he likes to cook. What I like about Sarah is that she reminded me of me when I was that age, wanting to explore things likes that. I also love that she likes Egypt. Sarah and John are pretty cool kids that learned a lot on this adventure.
Five Stars for The Eye of Ra by Ben Gartner
Mr. Gartner has written a book that reminds me so much of the Magic Treehouse series books that I used to read when I was little. It has adventure, mystery, and a new way to look at history. I was so engrossed in this novel from the first time I picked it up until I had to make myself stop reading last night to get some sleep. Therefore, this book is getting five stars and a huge recommendation.
Don't forget to check out the recipe called Tilapia Barley Stew that John and Sarah had with not only the Ancient Egyptians but also their parents.
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of The Eye of Ra by Ben Gartner.
Until the next time,
Happy Reading!
