There's a Pharaoh in Our Bath!

“I want a roast hippopotamus stuffed with figs and dates, three lots of French fries, no ketchup – and a slice of birthday cake”. The Pharaoh glared at Mr Lightspeed. “You are nothing but a small worm”, he added. Then he sank unconscious into a puddle.

Tony Lightspeed is always bringing home sick and injured animals, so his family aren’t too surprised when he turns up with an unconscious man dressed from head to foot in rather stinky bandages. But then they discover that the man is an Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh named Sennapod, who has been dead for over 4,000 years. Brought back to life by two dastardly grave robbers, Sennapod is on the run. Can the Lightspeeds help him?

    The characters are Sennapod, Jelly, Grimstone, Lightspeed Carry, Ben and Rustbucket. I liked them because they were interesting, fun and like real life people. At the beginning Jelly finds Sennapod in a coffin because he was dead for a billion years. Then he went to the Lightspeeds house where he used their bath. At the end professor Jelly lures Sennapod to the museum … What will happen? I think professor Jelly is evil! This caught me by surprise. I like the picture when Sennapod is playing a video. It makes the book good because it’s detailed. I’d recommend it because there were loads of good adjectives. My favourite was ‘monstrous.
