Mummies in the Morning

Reach for this book when your child starts showing an interest in secrets, old mysteries, or asks what happens after someone dies. It is an ideal bridge for the transition from picture books to chapter books, offering a safe way to explore slightly 'spooky' historical concepts like mummies and tombs without becoming overwhelming. Through the eyes of siblings Jack and Annie, children learn how to balance logic and facts with intuition and bravery. The story follows the pair as they are transported to Ancient Egypt to help a ghost-queen find her Book of the Dead. While the setting involves a funeral procession and a ghost, the focus remains on problem-solving and sibling teamwork. Parents will appreciate how it encourages research and curiosity, making it a perfect choice for kids who thrive on discovering how the world works through a blend of history and magic.
