Amos clapped his hands. "Khufu!"I thought he'd sneezed, because Khufu is a weird name, but then a little dude about three feet tall with gold fur and a purple shirt came clambering down the stairs. It took me a second to realize it was a baboon wearing an L.A. Lakers jersey.
In "The Red Pyramid" by Rick Riordan, a character named Amos calls out to someone named Khufu. The name surprises the narrator, leading him to initially think Amos has sneezed. However, he soon realizes that Khufu is not a person but a baboon, which adds an amusing twist to the scene.
The baboon, depicted as a small creature around three feet tall, wears a purple shirt and an L.A. Lakers jersey, highlighting its quirky and playful character. This detail not only underscores the book's humorous tone but also sets the stage for the fantastical elements present in the story.
