Whether you are exploring the Amazon or negotiating school, it's a jungle out there. Wouldn't it be great to face life's challenges armed with the knowledge and panache of an Indiana Jones? Now you can.

In Make a Mummy, Shrink a Head, you can learn how to unleash an ancient tomb curse to protect your bedroom from intruders. Avoid offending your hosts by mastering the art of ingesting unusual foods, such as crickets. Shrink a head (or an apple). And make a mummy that will last for thousands of years. Really! Sure it will start out as a hot dog, but it ends up as a genuine mummy.

As always, we provide the tools you need to practise your skillsβ€”from an interactive treasure map that tests your decision-making reflexes, to a hieroglyphic translator wheel to help you read cryptic messages. Not to mention the world's first make-it-yourself reversible hot dog sarcophagusβ€”ready to house your mummy for eternity.

It's everything you need to conquer the jungles of the Amazonβ€”or just your everyday concrete jungleβ€”and live to tell the tale.
