The Vandemark Mummy was a very good book. When the Professsor gets a collection with a mummy in it, his two kids, Althea and Phineas, suspect that the mummy may be fixing to endanger their lives. After Althea disappeared after the mummy had been found after being stolen, Phineas knew exactly where to find her. This book keeps you reading it because it is so good.

I thoght this book was great!I thought that I would finish reading it the next day but once I started reading it I realized I read the whole book in 1 hour.This was the first book I read by Cynthia Voigt. The second was Homecoming.Right now I'm reading Dicey's Song. I'm almost finished.Well, bye then.

...The Vandemark Mummy was filled with action, mystery, and suspense, making this work of fiction a great summer book. Phineas and Althea’s father is offered a job at a college in Maine. He accepts, and Phineas and Althea have a tough time getting used to the state, the town, and the new people. The college at which their father now works has a collection of Egyptian artifacts, including a mummy. Someone attempts to steal it, shocking everybody. Then it happens again; this time, however, the robbers are successful. Can Phineas and Althea solve the crime, or will the mummy remain permanently off display?

Excellent boook. I would love to read it again. and i will

This book is one of my favorite mysteries. I love ancientstuff, and I got historical facts and information on what scientistsdo to study mummies. The characters are so believable you miss them when the book is over. I actually looked for this book on Amazon because I wanted to see if there was a sequel!

The Vandemark Mummy was a very intriguing mystery. I have read a few of Cynthia Voigt's other books and this book proved to be another unique story by her. This book focuses in on the Halls, who have moved to Maine because of their Dad's job. Their mother is on the West coast because of a job as well. Their father, Samuel Hall, is thrilled to receive a unique egyptian collection which includes a mummy. The mummy is stolen, but soon that is the least of their porblems. Trouble soon begins to arise. This book is truely a great book brought to a satisfying end.

This is a great book. It is a wonderful mystery with a lot of suspense. The characters come alive and you can really feel for them and you can understand the way they are thinking. I love the way you don't know who did it until the end. An awesome book that everyone should read.

I read "The Vandemark Mummy" after reading "Izzy, Willy-Nilly," because I enjoyed Cynthia Voigt's writing. This book is just a fun book to read if you have nothing else to read or do. "The Vandemark Mummy," is a young book with a kiddy plot, so don't expect anything major.
