Just finished this yesterday (author in the picture).
Can't say it did much for me, which was a shame. It told about Tutankhamen's tomb and it's discovery in the 1920s.
When l was a girl, l was obsessed with this story. Maybe this is why l wanted a bit more than just a chronicle of what happened.

Thanks so much @LeahBergen for these wonderful (and color-coordinated) books!

But are you trying to lead Nicky & Sadie into a life of crime? They consider this a manual. 😹

The tagged book is right up my alley—a historical setting involving ancient Egypt. I can‘t wait to read it.

Thank you, dear friend, and have a lovely holiday. 😘

TheBookHippie Oooooo pretty! 2d
LeahBergen You‘re so welcome and you should probably read that book out loud to Nicky and Sadie so you can do some “on the fly” censoring. I have to buy that other book for myself now! 😆 Merry Christmas, dear friend!! 😘 (edited) 1d
