Illustrations are done well, the story line is engaging for children. It keeps them involved in the mystery.
Lesson Kickoff!

I used this book for two separate lesson plans. I made a game board and added game cards based on the book. This quickly became an engaging way to count faces, vertices, and edges. I also used it in 7th grade social studies to add questions about history. BONUS: my 13 yr. old and 10 yr. old thought it was an engaging book!

This is a picture book about the Zills family. The family is off on an adventure to hidden burial site of an ancient pharaoh. The twin brothers in the family get stuck inside a pyramid with their dog. They must use math to figure out a way to escape the pyramid. They must use skills to figure out the riddles written on the wall and locate the hidden burial chamber. Will they ever figure it out? Read Mummy Math to find out!
It's one of those special books which children will read without realizing they are learning a mathematical concept.
This is a recommended book for those teacher or parents that want to make math a little more exciting for children.
