Ricky, Ray & Rusty in the Land of Pharaohs: Pyramids, Bible Archeology & Camels

Ricky, Ray & Rusty in the Land of Pharaohs (Rocky Ridge Adventure Series Book 11)Ancient wonders. Laugh-out-loud mishaps. Big questions. One faithful God.Join cousins Ricky, Ray, and Rusty on a STEM-packed, faith-forward romp across Egypt. From camel rides at Giza to whispering galleries in Cairo’s markets, the boys discover how science and Scripture can sing in harmony—if you slow down long enough to listen.Guided by Aunt Pat (Bible at the ready), steady Uncle Dean (safety first!), and their local friend Sambo, the crew explores pyramids and the Sphinx, sails a felucca on the Nile, experiments with mud bricks and ancient locks, examines museum treasures, hikes a blackened peak linked to Sinai traditions, and meets the Red Sea with maps, an ROV, and honest questions. Along the way: field notes, friendly camels, snack emergencies, and the steady heartbeat of Exodus 14:14—“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”Kids will learn about:Engineering at Giza: alignment, relieving chambers, and corbelled galleries.Simple machines on the Nile: shadufs, saqiya water wheels, and rope-making.Materials & chemistry: Egyptian Blue, hematite, natron, and the Maillard reaction (hello, crispy onions!).Bathymetry & ethics: mapping an underwater ridge, coral “encrustations,” and how scientists evaluate extraordinary claims.Desert science: wadis, flash floods, travertine springs, desert varnish, and UV-glowing scorpions.Sound & light: resonance in copper bowls and the “whisper gallery” effect.Faith & character takeaways:Stillness isn’t doing nothing—it’s trusting God while He works (Exodus 14:14).Honest scales—for shopping and for ideas (Proverbs 16:11).Humility in discovery: wonder hard, test kindly, speak truthfully.Perfect for:Readers ages 8–12 (great as a family read-aloud).Homeschool, Christian schools, church libraries, and curious kids who love scienceandstories.Fans of action, humor, and real-world faith applications.What’s inside:Short, high-energy chapters with “Field Notes”.Discussion questions for each cha
