Description
Melanie and Cameron decide to spend their day at the Metropolitan museum. On their way, they meet their uncle Chris, who kindly offers to take them to the museum by his car, but he turned out to be a fake uncle, to tried to take them to a completely different place! The kids manage to escape and stumble into the museum, where they meet Imhotep, an Egyptian cat who says he is from the past and needs help to get home to his own time. Melanie and Cameron agree to help-even if that means that they time travel to different times! Imhotep gives Cameron and Melanie each an ankh. This ankh will transport them to different times and places and change their outfit. Imhotep changes too! In mastodon times, for example, Imhotep becomes a saber tooth tiger. Fake uncle is actually a time traveler from the past, he's really their great-great grandpa, Horatio, and wants to use the ankhs to stop the time rift. Imhotep wants to get home. The kids figure out the time rift and close it and send everyone home. But they lose the anchors and Imhotep forever. Hi everyone! This is a historical fiction, adventure, fun time-travelling story! Lots of the illustrations used are from the 'Kids in the Museum' collection on the 'Paint by Number' app on @misto125's iPad that she was really into during the pandemic where she had to stay at home. Thank you!
