I recommend you should close your iPhones and laptops and read this magical book full of mummies and pets. It's a magical adventure for Verity going through sadness and death but there's a wonderful ending I won't spoil the book but if you want to know what happens read it!

I like the book because she buried her cat, she thought she should bury her cat because at school she was learning about ancient Egypt and when cats died they liked to bury them.
