Reviews / Votes
Within its 73 pages this book, written in a tongue in cheek, irreverent style that would appeal to KS2 readers, manages not only to impart far more facts about the life and role of the Pharaoh than would be normally found in a book for this age group but also includes plenty of information about clothing, adornment, everyday life and religion; with plenty of suitably gory descriptions of mummification and the journey to the Afterlife...Your class will be queuing up to read this one! * School Library Journal * Your class will be queuing up to read this one! * School Library Journal *More details

Sam Taplin grew up in a beautiful valley in Yorkshire, where he dreamed of being a writer, and after three years reading other people's books at university he started writing his own for Usborne. He's been doing it ever since. When he's not writing about lonely rabbits or inquisitive bears, he likes doing card tricks, writing songs and playing long games of chess by the fire.
