The Hollisters have made it through Delhi, Tokyo, Greece, and Rome. Now Doug, Jen, their children, and seventy-four-year-old Bev have arrived in Cairo, where the traffic never stops, the horns seem to speak their own language, and even a simple journey across town can become a family adventure.
Doug has learned an important lesson on the road: ask for help. Unfortunately, he has not quite learned the other half of it—listen to the answer. Armed with his captain’s hat, notebook, and boundless confidence, he sets out to discover Cairo, one question at a time. Soon he is collecting directions from everyone he meets, with hilarious consequences.
Their stay brings the family into the orbit of Tante Despina, a magnificent former dancer with a grand apartment, a licorice cigarette holder, and very definite ideas about how life should be lived. Bev, who has never been one to back down from a challenge, finds an unexpected friendship waiting for her. Meanwhile, Madison fills her sketchbook with the wonders around her, and Max explores the world through the myths and stories he loves.
From Cairo’s bustling streets and ancient markets to the vast quiet of the desert and the timeless pull of the Nile, the Hollisters discover that travel is about much more than seeing famous places. It is about the strangers who become friends, the stories people share, and the moments when a family learns to pay attention—to one another, and to the world.
Warm, witty, and full of affectionate chaos, The Hollisters on the Nile is the fifth book in Nora Penwick’s feel-good family travel comedy series, The Hollister World Tour. Join the Hollisters for another unforgettable journey where the plans go wrong, the welcome is generous, and the most important lesson is often the one Doug almost misses.
