Museum Mystery Squad and the Case of the Hidden Hieroglyphics
One of the popular six-book series – each mystery story is packed with fun facts, interactive games and puzzles and dynamic, funny illustrations by Mike Phillips to engage young and reluctant readers.
Some people think that museums are boring places full of glass cases, dust and stuff no one cares about: wrong! In a hidden headquarters below the exhibits there’s a gang ready to handle dangerous, spooky or just plain weird problems: the Museum Mystery Squad.
Some new hieroglyphics have been discovered on the museum’s Egyptian mummy casket. What do the symbols mean?
The Museum Mystery Squad need to get their puzzle-solving brains in gear for this challenge as they encounter Egyptian artefacts from a pharaoh’s headdress and jewels to a mummified cat.
It’s up to Kennedy, Nabster, Laurie and Colin the hamster to solve the ancient code and keep a close eye on all of these valuable items…can everyone really be trusted?
“She absolutely loved them and devoured each one [Books 1 and 2] in a day. The characters and the plot really captured her imagination and she really enjoyed the way that facts were interspersed throughout (she loves a good fact!) The games and quizzes at the back were a big hit too.”
