The Hippocampus Book Council’s review of the book is here:
Hi there – My book ‘ Indus Investigators: Mohenjodaro Mystery was listed by you for 2010. It was published (Scholastic India) January 2011. I’d love to have it reviewed by yourselves. The book is an adventure story set in the ancient ruins of Mohenjodaro – a school trip with a boring teacher becomes an exciting adventure when a tiny clay man on a bullock cart alive in the museum – two children are invited to tour the city on his cart. They pass through a time warp and become true investigators.
We have created a website for children where children can meet the characters and send in questions and comments at http://www.harappa.com/investigators and you can find out more about the book. Ilona Aronovsky
