Word Travelers and the Taj Mahal Mystery: A Vocabulary Adventure Through Mystery, Magic, and India

When the Awesome Enchanted Book transports them to Agra, India, their vocabulary skills become the key to solving clues, outwitting a mustache‑twirling villain, and helping a young prince rebuild his school . Along the way, they discover the hidden Hindi roots of common English words—like how "shampoo" originally came from a Hindi word meaning "to rub". This engaging early chapter book blends middle‑grade mystery, fantasy adventure, and vocabulary building in a way that makes learning feel like play . Perfect for curious readers aged 7–10 (Grades 2‑5), it has received a starred review from School Library Journal, which praised it as a "winning series opener full of fun and facts".
