Explore etymology and world cultures in the new, exciting, action-packed mystery series from #1 New York Times bestseller Raj Haldar! In The Mystery of the Taj Mahal Treasure, Eddie and MJ are hunting down clues to find an Indian treasure...

Eddie and Molly-Jean are next-door neighbors and best friends. One Saturday, Eddie's mom sends him up to the attic to get his great-grandpa's most prized possession (a book, of course). Eddie and MJ are suddenly transported to India, where they must use their word knowledge to help a new friend save his school. This new series will follow the two best friends as they discover the hidden stories behind common words (for example, did you know that the word "shampoo" originally came from a hindi word that means "to rub"?) Using their Awesome Enchanted Book and a healthy dose of imagination, the daring duo transport themselves all over the world, encountering new adventures and learning how different cultures have contributed to the English language along the way. Content is vetted for language and reading level by Alycia Zimmerman, a Princeton graduate who has written for Netflix's Magic Schoolbus and is a contributing teacher for Scholastic, and former third grade teacher in NYC.
