One of the Best for Ancient Egypt study

Reviewed by Parent/Teacher

One of the best books we found on Ancient Egypt for young children! It's a light mystery written especially for children, set in Ancient Egypt, and you learn a lot about the time period and culture from the book's setting and dialogue while the mystery keeps everyone interested.

We recently loaned our copy to a friend. She said it was the best book they had read in their whole study of Ancient Egypt.
