About this book
Ten-year-old Kepi lives in ancient Egypt with her family, where her father was injured while working on a pyramid for the powerful pharaoh Khufu. Kepi and her pet baboon Babu are kidnapped and taken captive on a boat heading to the capital city. Separated from Babu, Kepi must navigate her way to the capital on her own to rescue her companion and find a way to appeal to the pharaoh.
