The Curse of King Tut's Mummy

(4) K-3 Stepping Stone True Stories series. Illustrated by Jim Nelson. During the early twentieth century, Howard Carter, the Chief Inspector of Antiquities in Upper Egypt, and financier Lord Carnarvon were determined to find King Tut's tomb. The book details their years of fruitless search and subsequent amazing discovery. The story is oversimplified but clearly related and will entertain young readers. Nelson's black-and-white illustrations help set the scene.
