Synopsis

Meet Anatiti: the most stubborn pharaoh in Ancient Egypt. Being chosen by the gods has given her quite an ego! After all, she knows best, not her pesky advisors. But when tragedy strikes and she is cursed, she realises maybe they had some good advice after all. Stuck inside a tomb for thousands of years, taken by an explorer and brought to the village of Dreadbury, will this mummy finally learn to listen and head off into the afterlife?

Reviews

Monster Support Group: The Mummy's Curse is the second book in this really super series, Monster Support Group. It would make a great addition to any class/school/home library and perfect to accompany Egyptian topic work. The illustrations are the star here, similar in feel and layout to the equally as wonderful historical/mythological 'Brownstone' series by Joe Todd Stanton (also published by Flying Eye Books). It makes a perfect introduction to the graphic and comic styles, whilst still feeling like a longer picture book. Great for yr2/age 7+.
