When I first heard that Emma Carroll was writing a book about the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb, I was excited for a number of reasons. One was that Emma is so adept at writing historical fiction that is relevant and uncompromisingly interesting to children, with her last book, Letters to a Lighthouse proving to be a resounding hit with readers in KS2. Another reason was that I am often asked for recommendations of books to link with the Egyptians topic and while there are some quality choices for Year 3 and 4, there seems to be much less available that is well suited to upper KS2. Emma Carroll never disappoints and this story was, in my opinion, her best one yet…
