"There is the queen of Nile, her ghost and she had to get her scroll so she could go to the next life. Jack and Annie found it for her then they went into a room. Instead of the queen they saw a box with her dead body in it. Jack set the scroll right next to her." — Anna (5 out of 5 stars)

" Who wants to read Mummies in the Morning? "
" Our girls really enjoy the The Magic Tree House series. This one involves a mysterious ghost and describes a 1000 year old Egyptian mummy. I thought these might be a little scary for our girls, but they seemed to do okay with it. We discussed how this story is just a made-up pretend story - not real. We are excited to read more books in the series! "
" Formulaic yes, but seems to do a great job of introducing history in a nonthreatening way. And the kids love this series. "
" My children loved to read the Magic Tree House books. This is a must have collection in grades 1st through 3rd grade for independent reads as well as read aloud. I have read a couple now and understand why the kids like them. They are suspenseful. "
" oops obviously have not been on here for a while. Libby had this one read to her in LECC last year and then read it herself a few months ago. If memory serves, she was anxious to get to the next one and not happy she had to read this one since she had already heard it. I told her it didn't matter, I wanted to hear them in order. LOL. "
" More chapter book fun for my kiddo. This one delves a bit into Egyptian religion and is a little macabre for a three-year-old, but not a bad story for all that. "
" Really enjoying reading this series with the kiddo. "
" Started to read this series with a student at work and got hooked. "
" I liked this book very much beacause it was a good ancient book about mummies and about finding stuff. They saw dead and real mummies. This book was kind of a mystery beacause they had to read a secret to read and find it. "
" Didn't like this one as much as the first to but it was good enough to read to the kids "

" Annie was so funny in this book, too. She was really brave, but Jack was scared. Then in chapter 9, Annie got scared, but Jack was brave. I'm going to the library today to get #4! "
" Great chapter book as a read aloud or as a first time chapter book. The series has kept the attention of my 4 and 6 year old boys. "

" This is an unbelievable book to read. "
" This book was very interesting. "

" The facts supplied in the book were entertaining to read, but I wish Mary had added more about the life of Queen Hutepi. However, it was exciting to read the hieroglyphics and find out where the Book of the Dead was at. "
" I absolutely LOVED the series when I was a kid, and I still do! I would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy / adventure books!! :) "
" Some of the facts provided in the book about the funeral processions, mummies and tomb robbers were interesting to read, but I wish the author had provided more background about the life of Queen Hutepi, "
