THE TIME GUARDIANS: THE SECRET OF THE CHRONOS CAVE Some summer adventures change your life. This one could change history. When twelve-year-old Juno Jones follows her friends into a mysterious cave hidden in the woods outside Riverview, she's expecting nothing more exciting than a cool refuge from the summer heat. What she and her friends—history buff Max, quiet nature expert Ren, and brilliant engineer Harper—discover instead is an ancient device that hurls them back in time to Ancient Egypt. Suddenly, they're over 4,000 years in the past, surrounded by workers building the Great Pyramid of Giza. With no idea how to get home and only each other to rely on, the four middle-schoolers must navigate a world where modern knowledge meets ancient suspicion. Their only guide? A strange mechanical owl named ECHO with more secrets than answers. But they aren't the only time travelers in Ancient Egypt. A mysterious corporation called Tempus is altering history for their own gain, and their changes could have catastrophic effects on the future—including erasing the kids' very existence. Now, Juno, Max, Harper, and Ren must find the courage and ingenuity to stop Tempus, protect the timeline, and find a way home. Their journey will test not just their knowledge of history and science, but the strength of their friendship and their own hidden potential. In this first adventure of the Time Guardians series, four ordinary kids discover that they might be the only ones who can protect the past, present, and future. Because sometimes the most important moments in history aren't the ones in textbooks—they're the ones no one ever sees. The Secret of the Chronos Cave combines pulse-pounding adventure with fascinating historical detail, introducing young readers to Ancient Egyptian culture, the engineering marvel of the pyramids, and the ethical questions that come with great power. Perfect for fans of Rick Riordan's mythology adventures and readers who have grown beyond Magic Tree House but still love time travel stories.

Some summer adventures change your life. This one could change history. When twelve-year-old Juno Jones and her friends—history buff Max, nature expert Ren, and brilliant engineer Harper—follow a hunch into a cave outside Riverview, they find an ancient device that hurls them back to Ancient Egypt. Suddenly they're standing among the workers building the Great Pyramid, with no idea how to get home. Their only guide is ECHO, a strange mechanical falcon with more secrets than answers. But they aren't alone in the past. Tempus, a corporation rewriting history for profit, is already there—and its changes could erase the kids' futures, and the kids themselves. To protect the timeline and find their way home, four ordinary middle-schoolers will need courage, friendship, and every scrap of ingenuity they have. Because sometimes the most important moments in history aren't the ones in textbooks—they're the ones no one ever sees.
