Meet Ahmed—a boy living near the Valley of the Kings in Egypt in 1922. Though he’s grateful for his job as a photographer’s assistant, he’d like to shoot something more interesting than rich tourists in front of the temple in Luxor. When he gets the chance to photograph a dig for archaeologist Howard Carter, he’s eager to contribute and impatient to uncover a secret tomb.

The hilarious Long-Lost Secret Diary series puts readers inside the heads of unlucky people in unfortunate situations. The accessible, irreverent stories will keep young readers laughing as they learn the importance of not being afraid to learn from their mistakes. Get Real fact boxes featured throughout, as well as a glossary and additional back matter, provide historical context and background.
