OLIVIA WOLF AND THE AMAZING TIME MACHINE
Book Summary
Olivia and her gang of monster friends return with a new and fast-paced adventure. This time, they will travel to ancient Egypt to help their friend Mario Mummy, who has contracted the mysterious Nile fever. The only possible cure is to stare into the eye of the statue of King Ra, but the problem is that the eye is located in the past. Without hesitation, Olivia and her companions jump down Vane's slide-time machine to face the dangers of a mission that will test their ingenuity and their friendship.
What is it about?

To heal, he needs to look directly at the eye of the statue of the god Ra, a relic that no longer exists in his time. The only option is to travel to the past, to ancient Egypt, where the statue still remains intact in the Great Pyramid of Giza. Olivia and her gang, equipped with Vane's new inventions, embark on a dangerous mission through time.
