Book excerpt: This is a real-life story about a young woman who awoke one day to find, through no fault of her own, that her life had changed dramatically. Tracey was a young working mum. Now she has Locked-in Syndrome and this book is about how it changed her life. Tracey spelt out what she wanted to say using her eyes and a letter board. Other people typed it up, but these are Tracey's words and this is Tracey's story. Tracey tells of her experiences in hospitals and care homes and of various medical treatments, having to make profound adjustments to being disabled and unable to move or speak, but also having to find new ways of relating to her young daughter, to her parents and to her friends. This is a rare story because the challenges of living with Locked-in Syndrome are profound and are unique to each individual. Tracey's is a story of one woman's courage that will move readers and, at times, will provide insight for those who work with and care for people with severe disabilities.

Book excerpt: Award-winning and critically acclaimed author Candace Fleming presents the edge-of-your-seat true story of the search for Tutankhamun's tomb, the Western public's belief that the dig was cursed, and the battle for ownership of the treasures within.

These books help readers learn about the world in which they live and develop their critical thinking skills so that they may become dynamic citizens who are able to analyze and understand our past, participate in essential discussions about our present, and work to grow and build our future. During the reign of the New Kingdom of Egypt, the boy pharaoh Tutankhamun ruled and died tragically young. In order to send him on his way into the afterlife, his tomb was filled with every treasure he would need after death. And then, it was lost to time, buried in the sands of the Valley of the Kings. His tomb was also said to be cursed. Centuries later, as Egypt-mania gripped Europe, two Brits -- a rich earl with a habit for gambling and a disreputable, determined archeologist -- worked for years to rediscover and open Tutankhamun's tomb. But once it was uncovered, would ancient powers take their revenge for disturbing and even looting the pharaoh's resting place? What else could explain the mysterious illnesses, accidents, and deaths that began once it was found?

Book What Is the Story of the Mummy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your favorite characters are now part of the Who HQ library! The Mummy joins other classic horror characters Dracula and Frankenstein in our What Is the Story Of? series. Unlike the other classic Universal horror movie monsters of their time, the Mummy's origins can't be found in the pages of a book. His story was inspired by the opening of King Tut's tomb in 1922. The world fell in love with all things Egyptian and was enthralled with stories of ancient mummies. The film producers of the early Dracula and Frankenstein films wasted no time creating a character who's been creeping out of his coffin and entertaining audiences since 1932. Author Sheila Keenan explains the history of the movie and its remakes, the legendary curse of King Tut's mummy, and what lies ahead for this monstrous creature.
