Your mission

Midnight the cat is exploring a pyramid in Ancient Egypt, and the tomb door is sealed five ways. Thousands of years ago, the Egyptians lived along the river NILE. They built giant pyramids, made paper from a plant called papyrus, and wrote with pictures called HIEROGLYPHS. Trained writers called scribes kept count of everything. The scribes left their work on the walls.
