Short description
With the memories of her mother's death fresh in her mind and her father too involved in his work, twelve year-old Emma Bradford, new to London from Manhattan, is driven to prove her theory that King Tut was actually a girl.
With the memories of her mother's death fresh in her mind and her father too involved in his work, twelve year-old Emma Bradford, new to London from Manhattan, is driven to prove her theory that King Tut was actually a girl.
Her oldest friend, now reduced to pen pal as he's stuck on an unproductive ostrich ranch in the middle of the Australian Outback, thinks she's crazy, but Emma's not a quitter. Despite the disdain of her instructors, Emma launches her search for clues to the ancient Egyptian monarch's identity in London's museums where she quickly finds new friends who help her explore new possibilities.
The disappearance of her kindly, elderly neighbor's pet draws Emma back home, and its astonishing reappearance in the last place anyone would expect works miracles as she manages to solve a mystery close to everyone's hearts.
A precocious, budding feminist, Emma's take-charge, never-give-up attitude proves to be an inspiration for both young girls and boys everywhere.
