Author/illustrator José Fragoso has woven a fun story with the additions of puzzles and fun facts about Ancient Egypt. – NetGalley-Educator.
This was a colorful and engaging adventure with a little bit of history and science woven into the story. The book is very fast-paced, taking children on this surprising journey (and back, phew) with Olivia and her friends. The story is easy to follow and has plenty of charming characters - plus some new potential dangers. I loved the way the story weaved history and a love of science through the plot - the science fair was loads of fun as well as the dangerous trip back in time. – YA Books Central.
