2.

HARLEY IN THE ANIMAL KINGDOM OF EGYPT
When Harley, the Egypt-mad young schoolboy, discovers a forbidden Ancient Egyptian ‘scroll of power’ hidden on the internet, he plans to reveal it as a display for his class Egypt Day celebrations. With a fatal double-click of the computer mouse, Harley accidentally lets loose the plagues of Egypt on his school, the same plagues that Moses brought down on pharaoh - a river of blood, invasions of frogs and locusts and the threat of worse to come... HARLEY in the ANIMAL KINGDOM of EGYPT is a fun, fantasy adventure for children, primary age to upper secondary school levels. It’s a magical fantasy about a boy called Harley and a group of his school friends who, through the agency of a mysterious Internet site, find themselves trapped in the Animal Mummy Kingdom of Egypt. It combines children’s love of animal creatures and mummies, with magic, mystery and humour. (The author piloted this idea on the Internet some years ago, placing the first few chapters free on his author’s website and received strong interest, from children and school teachers across the US.
