"Nadia loves fun facts. Here are a few about her. There was a magical--and hilarious--ancient Egyptian teacher named Titi trapped in her hippo amulet until she freed him last fall. Her school is choosing a new mascot and her idea is totally going to win. She's going to kick butt writing for the school newspaper this term--maybe. A couple of weeks in, the newspaper is a big mess. The mascot contest is mayhem, too ... Then Nadia and Titi discover that the hippo amulet holds a second secret, one that's super powerful and super scary. Too bad they have no idea how to stop it. But Nadia is on the case"--Back cover.
