The love between a cat and an Egyptian queen transcends time in this wonderful and approachable introduction to ancient Egyptian culture and burial practices.  While the Mummy Cat’s exploration of the tomb introduces the reader to features of an Egyptian tomb, the vivid murals and the cat’s reminiscences portray ancient Egyptian life. The hieroglyphs incorporated in the story are explained in the back matter along with an age appropriate explanation of Egyptian mummies, cats, and queens.
