Book 4: Stones, Secrets, and the Great Pyramid

by Unknown Author

The Adventure Atlas has taken Emma, Jake, Sophia, and Noah across oceans, into space, and through some of history's greatest mysteries. Now it leads them even farther back... More than 4,500 years into the past. Standing beneath the blazing Egyptian sun, the friends find themselves surrounded by one of the greatest construction projects in human history—the building of the Great Pyramid of Giza. How did ancient builders move millions of giant stone blocks? How did they measure with such incredible precision? And why did they build monuments that still stand thousands of years later? As they help workers, learn from skilled craftsmen, and discover the importance of mathematics, planning, and teamwork, the children uncover another clue left by A.B. But this clue is different. Someone else has found it first. For the first time, the mystery surrounding the Adventure Atlas begins to deepen, and Emma wonders if they are no longer the only readers searching through history. Filled with engineering, ancient wonders, fascinating discoveries, and unforgettable adventures, Stones, Secrets, and the Great Pyramid reminds readers that the greatest accomplishments are built one careful step at a time.
