Â In a merciful moment, the Pharaoh decides to give the two friends one last chance: they must journey up the River Nile to the temple of Karnak and bring back something that has been taken from her Â­ a beautiful and precious Jewel Fish. But she has a warning for the two:,â€œDo not take anything else while you are in Karnak. Â And know that the Jewel Fish is magical. Â Be sure it does not get wet.â€,Jackal and Ibis are not very clever and ignore the Cat Pharaoh's words, taking a few extra treasures for themselves . . . and disaster follows!,Book Details:,
