Nino would rather be outside playing than stuck inside doing homework—especially science homework. Then he discovers that one of the greatest scientists ever started out feeling the same way: Albert Einstein—the guy who invented that famous formula: E=mc2. And, as Ariane explains, there was a lot more to Einstein than just formulas. Thanks to him, we have GPS devices and electric gates, nuclear energy and … well, yes, also nuclear bombs. Einstein did everything he could to make the world a better place—but after all, he was only human!

Suspicious inspectors, evil robots, gangsters from around the globe: how will Mop and Monkus ever pull through? 

Ariane and Nino are in Egypt—ancient Egypt. That’s about 4,500 years ago, when the world’s largest pyramid was built. It’s called the Pyramid of Cheops because it was built for the Pharaoh Cheops, who wanted to be buried in it when he died. That’s right: pyramids are giant tombs! It was the first of seven buildings known as The Wonders of the World—and it’s the only one still standing! As you can imagine, it’s had a pretty eventful time over the last 45 centuries, but it still has plenty of secrets waiting to be uncovered …
