Product Description

Tony Lightspeed is always bringing home sick and injured animals, so when he turns up with an unconscious man dressed from head to tie in rather stinky bandages, his family aren't too surprised. 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 he persuade the Lightspeeds to help him?

IT'S GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A 4,000-year old Pharaoh, called Sennapod (Lord of Serpents and Master of Hippos), comes to stay at the house of Carrie and Ben, after their dad brings a mummy home and it causes burglars to come...
Jeremy Strong is a well-known and very well-liked children's author. He enjoys writing stories although he sometimes has some bad days but most of the time he has good days. The author has won many, many awards for many, many books including the 2002 Nottingham Experion Big 3 Book Award (for My Mum's Going to Explode), the 1998 short novel award at the Sheffield (for Pirate Pandemonium), and the very first 2006 Manchester Book Award (for Stuff).
I would rate this book 9/10 and would recommend it to children who like funny adventure stories.
