About The Lost Jewels Of Nabooti
Product Description The Lost Jewels of Nabooti by R. A. Montgomery takes YOU on a dangerous adventure of international intrigue! 9-12 year old readers will search for the legendary Jewels of Nabooti, stolen from a museum in Paris, facing hijackers and high-speed chases, encountering magic and curses, and trying to avoid snakes and crocodiles! Choose Your Own Adventure The Lost Jewels of Nabooti is an interactive adventure book in which YOU decide what happens next. The Jewels of Nabooti, two priceless diamonds and two dazzling rubies, have been stolen in a heist! These treasures have been a source of helpful power for the African Nabooti tribe in Senegal. It's up to you to restore them to their rightful owners, but who can you trust? Do you get your cousins involved? How much truth is there to stories of a curse upon all who search for the jewels? Will you be the jewels' next victim? For readers who enjoyed other titles from the Choose Your Own Adventure series, including: Blood on the Handle by R. A. Montgomery, Journey Under the Sea by R. A. Montgomery, and Beyond Escape! by R. A. Montgomery. Review Placing young readers smack-dab at the center of the action - and in control of the plot twists, the Choose Your Own Adventure series found an eager audience when Bantam launched the first of these paperbacks back in 1979. Between that year and 1998, that company released more than 180 books in the series, which reached an in-print tally of more than 250 million copies and were published in 38 languages. Now Chooseco, a publisher based in a Vermont farmhouse, is giving this generation's middle-graders the chance to choose their own adventures, as it reissues the series in updated editions. --Publisher's Weekly Children's Bookshelf About the Author R. A. MONTGOMERY attended Hopkins Grammar School, Williston-Northampton School and Williams College where he graduated in 1958. He pursued graduate studies in Religion and Economics at Yale and NYU. Montgomery was an adventurer all his life, climbing mountains in the Himalaya, skiing throughout Europe and scuba-diving wherever he could. His interests included education, macro-economics, geo-politics, mythology, history, mystery novels and music. He wrote his first interactive book, Journey Under the Sea, in 1976 and published it under the series name The Adventures of You. A few years later Bantam Books bought this book and gave Montgomery a contract for five more, to inaugurate their new children's publishing division. Bantam renamed the series Choose Your Own Adventure and a publishing phenomenon was born. The series has sold more than 260 million copies in over 40 languages. He was married to the writer Shannon Gilligan. Montgomery died in November 2014, only two months after his last book was published.
