In "King Coo: The Curse of the Mummy's Gold" the tiny but mighty girl with the impressive golden beard is back for another superb adventure.
Ben Pole is languishing back at school. Life is boring, so boring in fact that Ben could almost nod off in class.
But his ennui doesn't last for long as Ben is soon back in a whole heap of trouble!
A band of burglars and an ancient mystical curse have him in a terrifying tangle.
Who will save the day?
Will they catch the Midnight Mob?
Will Ben survive breakfast?
He needs a genius. He needs a fearless bearded girl. He needs KING COO!
We loved the original story, and once again this is a brilliant mix of fantastic characters, awesome storytelling and brill illustrations, shot through with a touch of Egyptian mysticism, perfect for kids who like a fabulous adventurous romp.
"King Coo: The Curse of the Mummy's Gold" by Adam Stower is out today, published by David Fickling Books (kindly supplied for review).
