An Intriguing Book for the Adolescent

I bought "Mummies, Tombs, and Treasure: Secrets of Ancient Egypt" for my adolescent cousins a few years back. This is really the stuff dreams are made of when you are at that age. This is actually quite an intriguing book that captivates the reader immediately. I recommended this book to a friend of mine whose has a boy very interested in archeology. That is why this book immediately came to mind. As I recall the cover grabbed me right away but the text itself is very well written. It definitely ignites the imagination and is fuel to the minds of many a young archeologist in the making.

this book is very cool.

I think this is A realy good book.It is very scary and interesting.Also it is about mummys and tombs.
