Synopsis

‘“I want a roast hippopotamus stuffed with figs and dates, three lots of French fries, no ketchup - and a slice of birthday cake.” The Pharaoh glared at Mr Lightspeed. “You are nothing but a small worm,” he added. Then he sank unconscious into a puddle.’

Tony Lightspeed is always bringing home sick and injured animals, so when he turns up with an unconscious man dressed from head to foot in rather stinky bandages, his family aren't too surprised. But then they discover that the man is an Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh named Sennapod, who has been dead for over 4,000 years. Brought back to life by two dastardly grave robbers, Sennapod is on the run. Can he persuade the Lightspeeds to help him?

About this title

About the Author:

Jeremy Strong once worked in a bakery, putting the jam into three thousand doughnuts every night. Now he puts the jam into stories instead, which he finds much more exciting. He loves writing stories because it's 'the only time you alone have complete control and can make anything happen'. His ambition is to make you laugh (or at least snuffle). Jeremy Strong lives near Bath with his wife, Gillie, four cats and a flying cow.

Synopsis:

Awoken from a 4000-year sleep by grave robbers, Ancient Egyptian Pharoah Sennapod is angry. Can he and his friends, Mr and Mrs Lightspeed and their children Carrie and Ben, outwit Professors Grimstone and Jelly and save the treasure? In the style of "There's a Viking in my Bed".
