Review # 2 was written on 2017-05-16 00:00:00 Carl Anderson The third chapter book we read with our three and five year old was book thirteen from the A to Z Mysteries series, The Missing Mummy Everybody really liked this one. It featured masked robbers, a bomb, a dead mummy family and stolen gold. The big people solved the mystery by Chapter 6, the kids by Chapter 8. It was fun to see them use some deductive reasoning to figure out a problem in this way. The plot is that three kids on a field trip to see some mummies are interrupted when a woman steals the child mummy from the casket. A short time later a bomb goes off and the kids see two masked adults stealing gold from the mummy exhibit. The crime happens on Mummy Monday, and by Wednesday they've solved the crime. There are illustrations on about every six pages and they're cartoony but very helpful with the story. As far as content warnings, the book talks about how the mummy child died when he was a little boy, maybe at the same time as his parents, so it might lead to talk about death. The robbery and bomb are as non-violent as they could be, given the circumstances. Nobody gets hurt, no bad language or sexual innuendo. I think we'll definitely return for more of this series at some point.
