I Escaped Egypt's Deadliest Train Disaster
Omtale
Bestselling author Scott Peters tackles the El Ayat train disaster in this gripping account of the 2002 train accident in Egypt for modern young readers.
15-year-old Sam is an American teen abroad on vacation. He's thrilled to be riding a rickety train on a family trip to Egypt. It sure is different than home! But as the train screeches through the night, a fire erupts in one of the cars. Smoke and sparks begin to spread, and Sam is shocked when the train picks up speed, racing into the dark night. Doesn't the driver know the train is burning? In the panicked crowd, Sam is separated from his parents. All he knows is that he has to stop this out-of-control train and save his family. But how? He doesn't even speak the language. He's just a kid from Washington, DC! He's way out of his element. Still, his quick thinking and determination sets the stage for a dramatic escape.
This is the 9th I Escaped adventure in the fictional children's series about brave boys and girls who face true, real-world challenges and find ways to survive disaster.
