Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx: Brownstone's Mythical Collection 2

This book goes a bit deeper than most children's story books into the feelings that parents and children inspire in each other. Specifically, the daughter is worried that her dad is disappointed in her. It turns out fine in the end, but it was deeper than I was expecting. The art, though, is fantastic. There's a section towards the end that's a cutaway of Marcy spelunking through a cave that I just adore. If you liked Hilda or mythology, you can't go wrong with these Brownstone books.

I love love love the illustration, masterfully made layouts and a captivating story. I am a 33-year-old woman who bought this for herself. You should as well, and check out the rest of the books from the same author.

My son absolutely LOVES the Brownstone Mythical Collection, and this book was no exception! He has been requesting this one at Bedtime for 2 weeks now since we got it! We love the stories, the illustrations, and the messages. Definitely worth the money. We eagerly await the next book in the series!

I loved this book!! My four and six year old loved every page. So many intricate illustration details for them to spot and talk about.

Great book! We love Joe Todd Stanton, and have Arthur and the golden rope. This was just as good. Both have amazing artwork and adventure stories that are nice introductions to mythology and history. Really hoping for more from this series.

I didn't love this one quite as much as the first in the series, but I loved the first one A LOT! The first one is one of my son's favorite books. This one is more complicated and a little harder for him to understand, but I think he'll appreciate it more as he gets older. He's just four years old right now. The story has a good message, and the illustrations are beautiful. Can't wait for the next book!

The art in this book is next level! Such a cute story of bravery too!

My 6 year old son loves the Brownstone books - including this one. It held his attention and was fun to read!

We love all the books in this series. Great stories and brilliant illustrations in a graphic novel style

Very lovely book about overcoming fears

My kids love this series, and the books are a perfect gift for their friends.

Excelent art and reading!

This is a really fun story, building of off The Golden Rope, this sequal introduces Egyptian God's really well. As a teacher, there are some excellent writing ideas you can take from the book, and Marcy is a great character. Also, just great to have on your home bookshelf, my daughter enjoys this story and its illustrations.
