by Ruth Fondick Jones ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 15, 1952
The pictured wall of an Egyptian tomb supplied the inspiration for this unusual story which takes the reader back to the days of the building of the Great Pyramid of Khufu. A first rate adventure tale of two children, an Egyptian lad and his rl slave and playmate, in which they help solve a mystery and bring a criminal to conviction a story told against a colorfully detailed background of period and setting. This sort of book makes ideal supplementary reading for history of days that em too remote to capture the imagination of most youngsters.
