Bookroo's summary

Twins Matt and Bibi, along with their dog Riley, find themselves trapped in an ancient Egyptian pyramid. With only geometric hieroglyphs as clues, they must use their math skills to unlock the secrets of the tomb and find the pharaoh's burial chamber. Can they solve the riddles and escape before it's too late?

From the publisher

“Matt, Bibi, and their dog Riley crawled through the tiny opening first. FWUMP! A secret door suddenly closed behind them . . .” Matt and Bibi use math to escape from a pharaoh’s tomb! When the Zills family is summoned to Egypt to help find the hidden burial site of an ancient pharaoh, Matt and Bibi are locked into an adventure they did not expect. Stuck inside a pyramid with only each other, their dog Riley, and geometric hieroglyphics to help them find their way, the twins must use their math knowledge to solve the riddles on the walls and locate the burial chamber. Luckily, the two know their stuff when it comes to geometric solids.
