Join Howie and Delilah on a whimsical quest filled with unexpected twists and timeless secrets.

From the publisher

Dear possible reader of this book, I wasn’t sure I’d be able to write a book ever again after Canine Quarterly reviewed my series, Tales from the House of Bunnicula. They said I would never win the Newbony Award. Was I depressed! And I didn’t even know what a Newbony was! Luckily Delilah’s read a lot of Newbony books, so she helped me write this one. It’s about a poor (but very cute) orphan dachshund puppy named Howie Monroe, who lives on the prairie and yearns for a chicken bone. (I know. Trust me.) Things really get exciting when Howie and his best friend, the smart and well-read Delilah, find a time machine and travel back to ancient Egypt where they uncover…the mystery of the Pharaoh’s tomb!!! Your friend, Howie
