The Egypt Game is about two kids making up a game that gets bigger and bigger. April just moved to the Casda roseda to live with her Grandmother Caroline because her mom Dorothea is going on tour. Melanie, another girl that lives in the Casda Roseda meets April and they think they have nothing in common but then they discover that both of them love learning about Ancient Egypt.

The two girls find an old junk yard owned by a man named the professor. The professor wasn't a very liked old man. To many people The professor was mysterious, creepy and very frightening. Melanie and April fix up the junkyard and start to play The Egypt Game. After a wile the two Egyptians grow into 6.

All of a sudden something happens that effected the Egypt Game forever.

My opinion about the book is it was ok. I liked how toward the end it left you hanging, but it went on and on in the beginning. It got really good in the last 4 chapters. It was very well written but it could have been better.
