The Travelling School Mysteries is one of the best mystery series for middle grade readers. Overflowing with clues, suspects and plenty of red herrings, children are able to immerse themselves in the genre and attempt to solve the mystery right along with the characters.
Libby is a delight – brave, determined and such a good friend. Nothing gets past her! As she travels the world with her unconventional school, the children run into one perilous adventure after another! Is it any wonder the parents are starting to ask questions?!
In Libby and the Egyptian Escapade, Miss Mousedale’s school is headed for something completely new. Sights, sounds and smells of the Egyptian culture come to life in the vibrant setting. There are the usual dangers of being in an unfamiliar place but something really strange is going on. A theft at the museum and talk of a curse puts everyone on edge.
Libby and the Egyptian Escapade would be an excellent stand alone story to read alongside a class topic on Egypt. References to ancient tombs, Howard Carter’s discoveries and modern life give readers lots to think about.
Thank you to Firefly Press for an early read of this fantastic book!
