Ra the Mighty is Pharaoh’s Cat. He is NOT Ra the Royal Babysitter. How’s a cat supposed to fit in snacks and naps when his charges keep getting into mischief?
Ra’s new job only gets harder on a voyage up the Nile to an unfamiliar palace. Then Pharaoh’s son disappears. Has he run away? Been eaten by crocodiles? Kidnapped? Ra and his dung beetle sidekick set out to discover the truth, but the palace is full of secrets. Can the Great Detectives unravel the mystery—and make it out alive?
More than 30 wacky illustrations bring this mystery to life, along with a glossary, pronunciation guide, and author’s note about ancient Egypt.
