Wrapped for Eternity: The Story of the Egyptian Mummy by Mildred Mastin Pace. First published in 1974, this book has been rescued from obscurity by a shrewd publisher--it's just too good to be out of print any longer. This is an in-depth look at Egyptian mummies--for kids, though most adults would appreciate its text-rich format--and it dwells on what kids want to know: all about pyramid builders, graverobbers, King Tut, and well-detailed (and sometimes gross and gory) mummy stories. Considering that the book is 25 years old, Pace's storytelling abilities are so good that it isn't dated one bit. Kids will have a hard time putting this book down (I know I did.).
