Ancient tombs. Hidden maps. A race against time in the sands of Egypt.

The Story Keepers are back-and this time, the glowing book pulls them into the deserts of Egypt. A forgotten pharaoh's secret is buried deep beneath the Valley of the Kings, and villains are desperate to twist the story's ending. From daring train chases through Alexandria to mysterious chambers hidden in cliffs, Riles and his siblings must solve riddles, face shadowy enemies, and protect a story thousands of years in the making.

Interview with the Author

Q - What makes the Story Keeping series so special?
A - Probably best to ask other readers. I like the series because Riles brings an honest voice to these wild adventures. He is also incredibly passionate about reading.
I love seeing Riles and his siblings work together save happy endings.

Q - What age children is the book written for?
A - I've heard great things from parents of children 5-7 who read it to their kids, and from parents of kids in the 8-10 or 9-12 range who read it on their own. The books are written at a 3rd grade reading level, introducing age appropriate themes for children 6-8 mixed with just the right amount of humor.
Riles tells these stories in a family friendly way. My own "beta-readers" include a 9 year old boy, 7 year old girl, and 5 year old boy.

Q - What order should I read the books in?
A - Each book can stand alone, since each adventure comes from another book. But there is something larger going on. Reading the whole series reveals a number of additional clues. Can you piece the bigger picture together?
Book 1: The Night I Became A Hero
Everything changes when Riles, Sissie, and Finn tuck in for story time at grandpa's house.
Book 2: The Night We Met A Dragon
Grandpa is keeping secrets, as the kids meet whiny Prince Winthrop, a wicked magician who wants to be King, and a dragon who remembers the white light.
Book 3: Secrets beyond the Nile
Story Keeping siblings help a witty professor dodge thieves and discover a lost mystery. Along the way, they discover surprising clues about mom and dad.

Q - Can I use these books for education?
A - Absolutely. A number of reviews from teachers suggest it's well paced for 3rd graders.
