That is NOT an easy subject to teach with such little children, as you're talking about dead people. It all started when they asked, "Are mummies real?" I replied with the truth, "Well, yes, but they're not monsters that chase you around going, 'Whoooooo!'" And thus began my search for an age-appropriate, non-fiction book about mummies. Let me assure you, that doesn't exist. However, that being said, with lots of stopping for commentary and answering questions, this was really good. Some were scared, some were grossed out, almost all were fascinated. And you're dealing with ancient religious beliefs, so at one point, I had to tell them, "That is a good question. People believe different things. You should ask you parents what they believe." One little girl told me after I finished reading, "This is kind of disgusting, but it's also kind of interesting." I could've hugged her on the spot. It's probably very different if you're reading it one-on-one with your child, but when you're tackling a room full of little, eager minds, this is a pretty good place to start. I recommend it, but be prepared to stop along the way to explain things, ask questions, and answer questions. I also recommend having additional non-fiction books for them to browse, but this was the best I found to actually read to them. Review: My son’s favorite book - My first grader has been really interested in mummies lately (thanks scooby doo). I bought this book since it’s non fiction and in his reading level. The pictures are a little spooky since they’re of real mummies. He absolutely loved all the cool facts in this book. From seeing pictures of real mummies to learning about the mummification process. He reads this book at least once a week. He’s even shared it with his virtual class and have inspired his classmates and teacher to learn more about ancient Egypt. This was definitely a winner for my seven year old who loves to learn. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #77,076 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #5 in Children's Ancient History #13 in Children's Archaeology Books #27 in Children's Customs & Traditions Books | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 526 Reviews | ## Images ![National Geographic Kids Readers: Mummies - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81mEvw2YslL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Very Good Place to Start (for my first grade classroom) *by J***D on January 8, 2015* I bought this book to learn about mummies with my first graders.

I bought this book since it’s non fiction and in his reading level. The pictures are a little spooky since they’re of real mummies. He absolutely loved all the cool facts in this book.

This was definitely a winner for my seven year old who loves to learn. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Age-appropriate book about mummies *by J***W on June 28, 2016* I thought my almost 5 year old - who is obsessed with mummies right now since seeing one in our local museum - would be terrified of this cover alone, but she loves this book and says "it's cool, not scary"! This is a really neat book, more like a magazine-style, intended for young kids. Nothing really graphic, although they are very clear in the text that "they remove the brain with a hook through the nose", and they do show real mummies close up (like the cover) ... so not for the faint of heart kids. But my preschooler is almost 5 and scared of alot however not this book. So I am giving it 5 stars for being truly age appropriate. The text is informative and large print for those a little older learning to read. Very happy with this purchase and so is my child! ## Frequently Bought Together - National Geographic Kids Readers: Mummies - Ancient Egypt (National Geographic Kids Readers, Level 3) - Pyramids (National Geographic Kids Readers, Level 1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/1694005-national-geographic-kids-readers-mummies](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/1694005-national-geographic-kids-readers-mummies) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-06-10*
