Another cute book that has a baby mummy playing hide n seek with it's mommy mummy. However, the baby gets lost and runs into all sorts of creatures looking for its mommy. Adorable story and wonderful graphics.
An adorable book about a baby mummy who instead of going to bed wants to play games and looks for his Mom. Good for Halloween and showing the "spooky" side through the eyes of a mummy. He was searching everywhere for his mom and ran into creatures and monsters wherever he looked.
A young mummy plays hide-and-seek with his mother, but quickly loses her.

This is darling - the story is cute, but I ADORE the illustrations! Very cute, and S, being a fiend for Halloween, loved it, too.
This is a fun, silly story to read! I really enjoyed reading this Halloween book to my kiddos and reading all of the fun word play.
52 months - Didn't Dr. Seuss or PD Eastman do a "Are You Mother?" Book? This Halloween version is cute but Halloween books are a dime a dozen with very few truly good unique and interesting ones. I don't feel like I have to have to own it.
Baby mummy does not want to go to bed so he runs from his Mummy. He hears noises but he is not afraid. Finally a noise and an animal come out that scares him and he wants his Mummy. Mummy is there to save him.

I love this story. It is fun. Your little ones will enjoy it. The illustrations are fantastic. Look at them and see the little details there.
Little Baby Mummy did not want to go to bed, so he headed out into the woods to hide during a game of hide and seek. When his mom did not come to get him, he got scared and went to look for her. After running into other halloween characters and then is scared by a rat, Baby Mummy's mom finds him and takes him home for bed.
Genre: Fantasy
Critique: This book is a good example of fantasy because it is all based around fantastic creatures and their ability to feel human emotions.
Critique of Character:
Little Baby Mummy is the antagonist in this story. The author does a good job of portraying Little Baby Mummy as the antagonist by making him relatable to the readers, allowing the readers to follow along on his journey and becoming the show more character the readers believe in and hope the best for.
