Reading aloud gives all pupils access to engaging texts and helps nurture a love of reading for pleasure. Research shows that reading for pleasure is linked to higher academic achievement, greater empathy, a deeper understanding of personal identity, and improved mental wellbeing.

Seth has kidnapped Ra, so Vesper and Aster must descend to the Egyptian underworld to find Ra and save the world. Some darker moments about death and friendship are lightened by the masterful, modern caricatures of the gods.
