Short Description

Miss Sorenson’s fifth-grade class at Green Hill Academy is going to make a movie… a mummy movie!

Brilliant but awkward Bernard Gawain is thrilled his crush, Bridget Matsumoto, has been cast as the leading lady, and he will be playing her hero. But this dream come true unravels when his domineering mother becomes the class substitute teacher and the film's tyrannical director.

Reviews

“A sprightly tale of self-discovery that’s both affecting and endearing…it’s inspiring to watch the fifth grader uncover his inner fortitude while hiding inside a costume.”
“A fun tale, which grabs from beginning to end”
“Illustrator Meaghan Tosi’s artwork includes gleeful, comically expressive faces along with campy B-movie posters (a highlight being the Spanish-language version of The Aztec Mummy vs. the Cat People).”
