Four siblings find an ancient tomb in the Judean Desert, and accidentally awaken a guardian mummy whose missing amulet holds the key to their survival-and a lesson about loss, hope and redemption. When Reuven, Sol, Benny and Dinah bike into a desert wadi, they expect sun, sand, and maybe a little mischief-not an ancient tomb, a broken amulet, and a full-blown mummy chase! After they stumble into a long-lost burial chamber and accidentally wake the mummy, the kids find themselves in a wild race to escape . Along the way, they dodge traps, outwit ancient magic, and discover the key to healing their own broken hearts. The Tomb of the Broken Amulet is an action-packed, heartwarming adventure about family, resilience, and finding hope in unexpected places.

20 story pages, plus bonus behind-the-scenes content.

From the author and the illustrator of José and the Pirate Captain Toledano, Brother’s Keeper, andThe Beast and the Booth.
