- Book Synopsis
- Kpop Demon Hunters fans will love this hilarious time-travel adventure starring famous historical figures as you've never seen them before. Join schoolgirl Skylar as she dances with Ancient Egypt's King Tutankhamun, fangirls with Marie Curie & gives William Shakespeare a K-Beauty glow up. When Skylar and best friend Dana accept a ride in Nana's new tuktuk, they don't expect to travel through time - nor to accidentally kidnap Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh King Tut and turn him into a K-pop sensation! Soon Skylar and Dana are on a whirlwind race through time to put things right before they change history for ever… Giving history a K-pop glow-up, this is a laugh-out-loud and life-affirming novel from the funniest voice in fiction. Written by a former primary school teacher, this joyful story explores themes of friendships and navigating those first arguments, dealing with change, and tween and teenage fandom. And if they love this book, they'll adore Skylar's body-swap adventure in Skylar and the K-pop Headteacher. Praise for Oops, I Kidnapped a Pharaoh! "Totally eccentric and chaotic, but good fun, and readers will pick up some historical and scientific knowledge, especially from Dana, along the way." Books for Keeps "Laugh out loud funny, filled with friendship and fun, this was a brilliant book about change, letting your friends grow, appreciating what you have got, love and friendship… and not forgetting fandom, of course!" Mini Travellers "[An] engaging, fast paced yarn." The Letterpress Project "This wonderful story will keep you on your toes and laughing." Armadillo Magazine
