(3) K-3 Step into Reading series. In 1991, two Alpine hikers found a body partially buried in the snow and ice. After scientific testing, archaeologists confirmed it to be the mummified remains of a five-thousand-year-old human. The Dubowskis' updated easy reader text heightens the drama of this true-life scientific puzzle. The many photographs of the body itself will fascinate readers interested in archaeology and/or gory skeleton pictures.
