Review by Horn Book Review

Annie and Jack, protagonists of the fictional [cf2]Mummies in the Morning,[cf1] serve as tour guides in this overview of ancient Egypt. The succinct text describes the Egyptian culture and presents basic facts about mummies, pyramids, and King Tut. The black-and-white illustrations are adequate; the photographic reproductions of various relics are sometimes murky. The book also contains research tips. Bib., ind. (c) Copyright 2010.
