Mummy Math: An Adventure in Geometry

Cindy Neuschwander

Henry Holt and Co. (BYR), 2005

Lesson Kickoff!
I used this book for two separate lesson plans. I made a game board and added game cards based on the book. This quickly became an engaging way to count faces, vertices, and edges. I also used it in 7th grade social studies to add questions about history. BONUS: my ...

Where's My Mummy?

Carolyn Crimi

Candlewick, 2008

3 year old loves it!
This wonderfully written and illustrated book takes you on a tour through the grave yard with baby mummy, where we meet dracula, skeleton and other halloween characters. The rhythm of the story makes it easy for young ones to remember; my son had it memorized after the ...

Skippyjon Jones in Mummy Trouble (Skippyjon Jones)

Judy Schachner

Dutton Juvenile, 2006

We LOVE the Skippito
This is the best series of kid's books...ever. Wonderfully talented imagination, fun to read and colorfully creative illustrations. Get the hardcovers...they come with a CD (to listen to in the car). The author reads the books. It really adds to your reading ...

The Mummy Case (Amelia Peabody Mysteries)

Elizabeth Peters

William Morrow, 2007

Why a reissue??
I love this series, and this title is a lot of fun, not least because of Ramses. I recommend the whole series to anyone who likes lighthearted mysteries, even though the later ones, set in and around WWI, are darker in tone. But my question remains... why are they ...

Mummies & Pyramids (Magic Tree House Research Guide)

Will And Ma Osborne

Random House Books for Young Readers, 2001

Researchers Don't Believe Pyramids Built By Slaves
This is a very good book for children. It contains a lot of great information about Ancient Egypt. I read another review by a reader who was offended by the thought that the Pyramids weren't built by slaves. This was obviously a surprise to him but I had heard it ...

Mummies in the Morning (Magic Tree House, No. 3)

Mary Pope Osborne

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1993

Mummies in the morning
This book was very hard to find. At one time the publisher said it was out of print. However, good old Amazon came through one more time. I now have a very happy 7 year old grandson. Thanks again Amazon.Mummies in the Morning (Magic Tree House, No. 3)

Penny Arcade Volume 5: The Case Of The Mummy's Gold (Penny Arcade)

Jerry Holkins, Mike Krahulik

Dark Horse, 2008

Fantastic
No boring, long review. Just know that Penny Arcade is fantastic, and if you do not enjoy Penny Arcade, not only is this book not for you, but neither is oxygen.

Lose Your Mummy Tummy

Julie Tupler, Jodie Gould

Da Capo Press, 2004

It really works.
I'm always surprised at the number of women I talk to that have no idea what a diastisis is, and can't believe this isn't talked about more in pre- and post-natal visits. I knew nothing about this until doing an internet search after my first daughter was born, and I ...

Ice Mummy (Step-Into-Reading, Step 4)

Cathy East Dubowski, Mark Dubowski

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1998

The Mummy Returns (not the movie)
I Think the 5,000 year old Mummy is very good discovery. I never knew that there could be a Mummy in the alps or any other extremely cold moutain area. (I was just plain dumb about that). I Think that this book about the Ice Mummy is very good to learn about. ...

Theodosia and the Staff of Osiris (Theodosia)

Houghton Mifflin, 2008

The Mummy or Ramses the Damned

Anne Rice

Ballantine Books, 1991

Anne Rice at her Best
I can't think of a more perfect book. the only flaw is that it might be nice to get a sequel, but I think it's too late now. The Mummy is a fantastic adventure story, with some romance thrown in for good measure. Ramses is found and he's not actually dead. He finds ...

Geronimo Stilton The Mummy With No Name (Geronimo Stilton)

Geronimo Stilton

Scholastic Paperbacks, 2006

Geronimo Stilton = Great Books
Great read for 8-10 year olds. Fun fonts make for fun reading. My kids love them. Book arrived on time.

Mummies Made in Egypt (Reading Rainbow Book)

HarperTrophy, 1985

The Wish to Live Forever
Kids love mummies, and mine are no exception. As Aliki (the book's author/illustrator) says, "A mummy is a mystery-hidden in layers of ancient bandage, bedecked with priceless jewels." We read Mummies Made in Egypt as part of our Egyptian study when our children were ...
