An adventure filled with ancient Egyptian gods and legends, Marcy is a clever girl whose love for her dad leads her to daring acts of bravery. It was excellent. I liked it when Marcy went towards the serpent and jumped out at his tail to free her father Join Marcy as she decodes hieroglyphs solves puzzles and learns about the ancient gods of Egypt in this thrilling second book in the Brownstone’s Mythical Collection series.

Many years have passed since the tale of Arthur and the Golden Rope, and Arthur is now a world-famous adventurer. If only his daughter Marcy shared his enthusiasm for exploration. Book #2 in "Brownstone's Mythical Collection". Another pint sized hero who uses kindness, courage, and brains to save the day. This time it centers around Arthur's daughter Mary, who is afraid of the dark.This story introduces the reader to a few basic aspects of Egyptian Mythology. This was sooooo cute. I loved the illustrations and how the story developed. Cute story for children on how to overcome fear. The reader is once again welcomed by professor Brownstone, but this time he is in the Brownstone family's observatory, and is set to tell the story of Marcy Brownstone (daughter of Arthur Brownstone, the first Brownstone and protagonist of Arthur and the Golden Rope), who is afraid of many things and wonders if she is really an adventurer (like her father and mother). Yet when her father disappears, Marcy figures out that he has hone to Egypt, and she sets out to find him ... and save him.
