Could ancient Egyptians have made it as far north as Manitoba? That’s what Cody and his friends want the experts to think, as they orchestrate an archaeological hoax that puts their town on the map. Cody, his best friend Eric, and Eric’s twin sister, Rachel plant an “ancient Egyptian” tablet in the riverbed, and suddenly archaeologists, reporters, and tourists are rushing over to take a look. The kids are convinced that their plan has succeeded … until one suspicious stranger starts trailing every move that Cody and his friends make, and they realize their hoax may have gone too far. Who knew that messing with ancient Egypt could be so dangerous – maybe even deadly? A free activity sheet is available at lobsterpress.com.
