Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Jerry Todd and the Whispering Mummy
When I had this story all wrote down on paper I gave it to Scoop Ellery and said: You take it home and read it and see if I've left out any thing. Scoop, who is my pal and shared in the adventure, read the story and said: No, Jerry, I don't think you've left out a thing. I like the way you tell the story, too. That part where the mummy whispers is spooky and shivery; and there's a lot of fun and oodles of mystery. Yes, he added, wanting to hand me a little praise for the work I had done, it's a pretty slick story and I bet you that boys who like to get hold of a good book will eat it up.
I hope Scoop is right. I hope you'll like this book, which tells how we solved the mystery of the whispering mummy. I am going to write a number of these fun-mystery books and this is the first one. If you like this story, as I hope you will, you'll next want to read my second book, jerry todd 'and the rose-colored cat.
