Great Giza Gonzo", the first in a spectacular
twins series, is a wonderfully crafted piece of
kids historical fiction, chronicling the escapades of the
time-travelling, quirky, nuclear twins, Cooper and Alyx, as
their mystical trunk (and the magic within it) hits sand in
ancient Egypt. Meanwhile, their curmudgeonly wicked neighbor,
Oswald Pennytinker, arrives in a beat up old trunk of his
own, attempting to steal the Kings treasures.
Through
action, humor and adventure, readers will be introduced to
the twins eccentric inventor father, Clark, post-punk,
fashion savvy mother, Isabella, and our galactic guides and
fraternal twins: Cooper and his younger sister (only by 11
seconds but whos counting?) Alyx!
Hold on tight as the Sprocketeers journey time after
time through limitless time-traveling missions from
present to past to future and beyond in their magic
hour, time-altering antique chest thats tucked
away in the family attic (shhh
) AKA
The Box.
Let the colorful illustrations suck you into the world of
the turbulent twins and their discovery of the magic
gifts the time travel Box from their parents attic hold.
When they climb inside The Box, their mission will be revealed.
The duo, along with their loyal pet Rivet - an
automaton metal spider fashioned like an eight-legged Swiss
army knife trek through time, overcoming historic and
futuristic obstacles from the dawn of earth - to dinosaur
girth - to doing battle with Martian bands and in this first
book, saving the treasures of the Egyptian pyramids.
So, power your flux capacitors, button down your hyper loops,
fire up your hot tube time machines and get ready to think
outside The Box with our time traveling twins
Cooper and Alyx, The Sprocketeers, in their first
adventure book Great Gizo Gonzo.
