Reading with David – The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy

David says:
I gave this story four stars because I didn’t really like the beginning because it wasn’t interesting to me and it was a little too confusing.

I thought it was interesting that someone disguised the cat and how the two cases were intertwined. I also liked that Jupiter figured it out about the cat and helped him realize Sardon might be a disguise, too.

I didn’t like that Sardon/Freeman tried to steal the mummy and its case. The part where we found out how the mummy whispered was interesting and clever. I also didn’t like that Freeman stole the cat.

I liked that in the end everything went back to its right place. The thieves were caught. The jewels were sent back. And the cat went back to Mrs. Banfry. In the end, this book was fun to read but not as good as the other two we read so far.

Reading a book a week with my six-year-old son David is a weekly project for 2011. You can read more about it here.
