Escape from Egypt (Time Jumpers #2)

Escape from Egypt. (Time Jumpers #2) Wendy Mass. 2018. [October 30] 96 pages. [Source: Review copy]

First sentence: Chase presses his pillow over his head. It still doesn't drown out the noise coming from the suitcase under his bed.

Premise/plot: In the first adventure, the brother-and-sister team of Chase and Eva traveled back in time to King Arthur's court. This second adventure has them traveling back in time--to Egypt. But to what time in Egypt?! These two are still super-new to time travel and much of the book has them trying to figure out the why and the how of it.

My thoughts: I like both books in this series. I love reading time travel stories in general. This is an early chapter series. It won't prove super-entertaining for adult readers. But for kids just starting to read chapter books on their own, it's a fine series to begin.
