When I first got The Mummy Returns Scrapbook by John Whitman, I was amazed by the pictures and the time and effort put into the making of this awesome scrapbook. This Scrapbook also gives the story of the book as well as amazing pictures. This book was written fantasticly, and assembled with a lot of thought behind it. If I could say one word abouth this wonderful book, that word would be "Awesome"!

I got this book not for the way it was written - I understood it was for younger kids, but rather I got it for the colorful and beautiful photos and facts about Ancient Egypt. I myself love Ancient Egypt and enjoy reading anything on the subject, plus I love The Mummy and will no doubt love The Mummy Returns. I have already also read the novel by Max Allan Collins. It was fast-paced and exciting. So if you're older and interested in The Mummy Returns, you can still get this book. It's a treat for the eyes, and simply nice to have. I can't wait for the arrival of the film itself!

I usually don't even buy these kinds of things, but I lumped it in with other stuff and it was a great buy for the price.

The images were great and a special pleasant surprise was teh first person vantage from Alex's viewpoint. For that alone it is priceless.

And if you're like me, the pages are great for wallpaper, postcards, etc....oops!!!

When I saw this scrapbook I thought that it would be like previous movie scrapbooks that I've come across...but I was wrong! There were hardly any facts about the movie and was written from Alex's POV.

On the good side there were some nice pictures of Rick so I did get something out of this so called "Insider's Guide".
