The Golden Goblet / Eloise Jarvis McGraw / 248 pages

This Newbery Honor winning book was just such a good book.  It concerns Ranofer, an Egyptian boy, in the time of the phaorohs.  He must live with his abusive half-brother Gebu.  He wishes to be a goldsmith.
There is a mystery of missing gold.  Can he solve the mystery, gain friends, and change his destiny?  The story is good and the description puts the reader in ancient Egypt.  What's not to like.
