The Egypt Game (1967) is a Newberry Honor-winning novel by Zilpha Keatley Snyder. The story, set in California, follows the life of 11-year-old April Hall, the Spanish daughter of an actress sent to live with her grandmother, and Melanie Ross, her 11-year-old African American neighbor. Both share an interest in Ancient Egypt, and decide to create an elaborate Egypt "game", which proves both successful and, oddly, dangerous to the community. April and Melonie also appear in Snyders' Gypsy Game.
