The Mummy Hand - Hardcover

While Amber and her younger brother Stevie are playing in their grandparents' basement, they find an ancient mummified hand hidden behind a false wall. They learn quite by accident that this hand can make items like Grandpa's championship basketball and pinball machine disappear. While trying to make them reappear before Grandma discovers what they have done, Amber and Stevie realize the hand can make them disappear as well and reappear in a strange Egyptian world where statues come to life and where a handful of ruthless pirates have been stranded for hundreds of years. When a snooping neighbor boy gets hold of the gruesome hand, he panics and accidentally sends Amber and Stevie to this strange world with no possible way of getting back home.
