Purchase options and add-ons

This gently spooky read-aloud treat is also a satisfying bedtime book — sure to delight the youngest reader on many a deep, dark night.

Little Baby Mummy wants just one more game of hide-and-shriek with Big Mama Mummy before bedtime. The night is deep and dark, full of friendly creatures that click their clacky teeth and whoosh past on flippy-floppy wings. But who will comfort Little Baby Mummy if a small, scritchy-scratchy someone gives him a scare? Big Mama Mummy, of course! Fresh, comical illustrations complement this everso- slightly suspenseful story with a satisfying ending.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY SMALL, CHECK DIMENSIONS

Story/Illustrations—Five Stars
Size of book—Two stars
Overall—Five stars because the book’s reputation shouldn’t be dinged for the format

I checked out the full size version of this book from the library and my preschool class LOVED it so I jumped on Amazon to order my own copy. Hardcover? Check! Add to basket. Never imagined a hardcover book would be the size of your average board book! If it were a board book I would have been thrilled as I love to add those to our free choice classroom library. But this is too small for a whole group read aloud and the great illustrations are diminished in the smaller format even as a lap-read aloud imo. You fooled me Amazon, I thought I was getting a stellar Prime Day deal.

Granddaughter loved this book. This hard cover is not as big as the library version and perhaps I missed that in the description. Still, a treasure!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for First Grade
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2014
Verified Purchase
This is a fabulous book! It's silly and my first graders love it! We do a whole unit based around this story and mummies. ("Are mummies real?" "Well, yes, but they are not monsters that walk around making scary sounds and trying to get you." It sparked a whole 10-day exploration.) We use it for sequencing, dramatic play, character development, onomatopoeia, story structure, grammar, fantasy vs. realism, summarizing and retelling among other things. It's a simple story, the kids get so into it, and I had to buy 2 more copies just to meet the demand in my classroom! I highly recommend it for any first grade classroom!
