I don't recall seeing any mention here of the following two upcoming books: Indy's Adventures Traps and Snares
Does anyone have further information on these? The second one sounds like it might be interesting.
I can't say for sure, but I think these are short books for very young readers 4-6 with pictures from the movies and very large, accompanying text to describe the scenes. The Traps and Snares one probably focuses on all Indy's temple/tomb robbing adventures, whereas the Indy Adventures is probably just a general summary of one or some of the movies.
I think I saw several of these done by the same publisher (DK) for Pirates of the Caribbean. So, as said, I don't think these will be original stories, but the hardcore Indy fans will probably still want to pick them up.
I think the picture on the Indy's Adventures book is from Temple of Doom, in the Cave after Shorty accidentally closes the door then activates the spike trap, but not sure.

Definitely, but I've never seen this still before, unlike, say, the one on the other book, which is definitely over-circulated.

usually the books are about twenty pages in length, and do have a story ---- then they also are given to be books about the character and locations they have visited .i'm guessing that both will be a little of both , because they are learning books for 1st and 2nd graders , but that won't stop me from buying them --- my wife says i act like a kid anyways ---lol
A pleasant surprise was that The Buried Treasure book mentions at least one Young Indy adventure, the one in Egypt. It's not quite accurate, but whatever. Now, dare I hope for a continuation of the Untold Adventures series?

If you take a gander at the glossary in the Look Inside feature you'll see Meto, Krishnamurti, Remy and WW1 are mentioned aswell.
Vlad the Impaler (Targo) and the Red Baron are referenced in the Great Escapes glossary.
