Finally! The day we’ve all been waiting for is here. Today, we are proud to announce the release of our third book, Travels with Gannon and Wyatt: Egypt!!! If you liked the first two books, Botswana and Great Bear Rainforest, then you’re going to love the latest adventure, where the twins travel to Egypt in search of answers to ancient mysteries and maybe even a mummy or two.
SYNOPSIS:
Gannon and Wyatt might make the discovery of a lifetime — if they can outlast danger in the land of pharaohs! After winning a prestigious fellowship from the Youth Exploration Society, Gannon and Wyatt set off on a journey to Egypt. There they study with world-renowned archaeologist Dr. Mohammed Aziz, joining him on a quest to find the long lost tomb of the Pharaoh Cleopatra, rumored to hold priceless treasures and secret scrolls containing answers to some of ancient Egypt’s greatest mysteries. But Gannon and Wyatt aren’t the only ones interested in Cleopatra’s secrets. Ruthless tomb raiders are hot on their heels, and the brothers must brave venomous snakes, deadly booby traps, and ancient curses as they find themselves on the verge of a magnificent discovery that could rewrite history.
The journey to publishing our third book has been a whirlwind experience for all of us. But rest assured, we wouldn’t change one minute of it! We love what we do. Reviving the spirit of those famous explorers, traveling the world, and (of course) keeping our journals along the way. The only thing we love doing more is visiting with you, loyal readers!
Speaking of which, have I met you yet? If not, I’d love to! Coauthor Keith Hemstreet and I (and sometimes the twins, too) travel the country sharing our books, pictures, travel stories and goals for environmental conservation, cultural preservation and philanthropy. We’ve visited schools in Oklahoma, Colorado, and Florida, but we’re hoping to visit you, too! If you’re interested in having us visit your school, check out the “Contact Us” page on the main portion of our website. Who knows, maybe we’ll be in your area this year and can bring a little adventure to your school!
And we’re not done adventuring yet. Far from it. Up next is a thrilling dogsled adventure in Greenland! So keep your eyes open, young explorers. You never know where we’ll be adventuring to next!
Happy Travels!
