From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| Sensitive youngsters beware: with its numerous photos of shriveled and discolored corpses, this slim entry in the National Geographic Readers series is nightmare candy. But for kids with a taste for the macabre, it’s a visceral introduction to a topic they’ll keep seeing throughout their education. Carney divides her subject into two categories: natural mummies and man-made mummies. The first category is illustrated with mummies found chiefly in bogs, and their shiny black faces (one with a noose still around his neck!) are hauntingly preserved. The simple text provides plenty of shockers: “The bits of his last meal, vegetable soup eaten 2,300 years ago, are still in his stomach.” Egyptian mummies dominate the latter half of the book, which includes a cartoon-style “How to Make a Mummy” section. Scattered throughout are boxes that define unfamiliar words. A few jokes running along the top of the book (“Why did the mummy call a doctor? Because he was coffin”) try their best but can’t really lighten the mood of this dark but intelligent offering. Grades K-2. --Daniel Kraus |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| One day when a farmer was working in some "swampy land" he was quite shocked when he uncovered a body when he was digging. The body was blackened, but other than that the man looked like he had just died. Much to his surprise and probably that of the police, this man turned out to be more than two-thousand years old. He had unearthed a mummy. If you are interested in archaeology or mummies, you will be fascinated by this book. Usually when something dies, "insects, wild animals, and bacteria eat parts of the body." But why doesn't a mummy decay? This is one of many questions you may have that are answered in this book! |
