From the Back Cover
Twelve year old Rachel Dubois is a world traveler, but not by choice. Her parents, who are both archeologists have made her change schools more often than most kids like to change socks. This time she gets to live in Mexico, with her grandparents while her parents excavate a Mayan ruin. A mysterious amulet she is given seems to be causing her a lot of bad luck for something that is supposed to be a good luck charm. Rachel finds out more than she bargained for while seeking the mystery behind the curse of the amulet in "Mummy's Home Town".

Excellenty Mystery,
By Mrs. Amber Skakun (Burnaby, British Columbia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mummy's Home Town - The Curse of the Amulet (Paperback)
I was a captive audience in this wonderful mystery! The author cleverly guides her reader on a Mexican adventure through the eyes of a young girl as she discovers the truth about her amulet and the trials and tribulations of living in a mobile family. The story brought back a few memories for me of the feelings associated with moving to different schools. I recommend this book for anyone who loves a good mystery or wants to know what it's like to move many times.
