Synopsis

The Time Warp Trio is back, and up to hieroglyphic high-jinks in the land of pyramids and Pharaohs! When Joe's sister Anna accidentally opens The Book, Joe, Sam, and Fred suddenly find themselves in ancient Egypt. Soon the Time Warpers are dodging crocodiles on the Nile, outwitting the evil high priest, and searching for an escape route from the mummy-making chamber. Can their new friend Thutmose III, the boy kind, help them?
