The first book in the hilarious Bab Sharkey and the Animal Mummies adventure series, from award-winning Australian comedian Andrew Hansen (best known for The Chaser) and his equally dynamic wife, Jessica Roberts.
When twelve-year-old Bab Sharkey finds a magical beard in the Egyptian desert, it attaches itself to his face, making him the Pharaoh and granting him strange powers. Bab also finds the friends he's always needed: a pair of undead animals wrapped in bandages called Scaler the Fish Mummy and Prong the Ibis Mummy. But the previous owner of the Beard, the ancient and evil sorceress the Unpharaoh, is determined to get it back. Can Bab and his new Animal Mummy friends banish the Unpharaoh back to the Afterworld?
Packed with jokes, sound effects and songs, it's perfect for middle-grade kids with a wacky sense of humour.
