Review: Absolutely wonderful book for young historians - Our daughter loves Ancient Egypt and so we bought this for her as a Christmas present. It’s incredible. The level of detail is brilliant and it caters for many different learning styles. She’s still quite young for it (8yo) and so dips in and out of it at the moment, but I do feel this is something that will grow with her and grab her interest even more when she’s older. The quality of the artwork and included elements is outstanding. Review: A Beautifully Illustrated Book - This book is fabulous. I recently sailed the Nile visiting the Temples and the Valleys of the Kings and this book depicts these beautifully. Lovely illustrations and easy to read the history of the Pharaohoes.I bought it for my 10 year old grandson who loves history. The front cover is beautifully produced. I'm so impressed that I'm going to buy another copy for myself.

Full of information presented in a fun way
Brilliant book, bought for my grandson aged 9 and he was totally enthralled. Lots of facts in short bursts of writing and envelopes with items inside plus a game and a hieroglyphics mini dictionary. Hide and seek in a book!

Beautiful book for any child interested in Ancient Egypt
Beautiful book with lots of facts and stories about Ancient Egypt. Lots of lift the flap activities with little envelopes containing additional information. Bought as a gift for my 8 year old nephew who loved it!

Great book, some issues with preowned
The book itself is brilliant, with loads of great information on ancient Egypt, really well presented. I ordered a preowned book in order to save some money and recycle. The book is unfortunately missing a couple of the interactive elements inside, and the shipping took about 3 days longer than estimated. My son says he's not too worried about the missing parts, but it's still somewhat disappointing.

Fun and engrossing
This book is like the others of its type, meaning its perfect for kids who want to dig deeper into a subject or learn a random collection of information related to a particular subject. It is written in a kid-friendly way, aimed at pre-teen or teen reading and understanding level. These books are especially cool because they have pockets with removable bits, such as cards with additional information or bits of cloth that are examples of some detail that page talks about. The one about Greek and Roman mythology is also very cool. They don't dig deep into the history or facts in terms of learning them for academics, but they are excellent support material that can either help the subject to be more fun for the kid or extra material if the kid is particularly interested in the subject.

Aluciando y más que satisfecho.
Pues es un libro en inglés que compré para mi sobrino. Lo vi en el British Museum cuando lo visité hace unas semanas y ya quise regalárselo. Lo compré al final por Amazon y la verdad es que el libro es super didáctico; enseña muy bien y con muchísimos detalles todo lo relacionado con Egipto, las momias, las pirámides y todo el misterio de las creencias egipcias. Viene con pequeños desplegables para ir descubriendo los tesoros de egipto poco a poco, así como partes con las que interactuar como un juego de mesa que se jugaba en aquella época, una carta como si fueras un explorador, y demás partes que hacen que el libro sea una pequeña maravilla a un precio muy bueno. Mi sobrino se lo lleva a todos los sitios para enseñarlo: al cole, a la familia, a los amigos... Tiene 6 años y es una buena edad para que aprecien estas cosas. En mi caso el que el libro sea en inglés no es un problema porque es bilingüe y aunque hay conceptos algo complicados lo entiende muy bien. Muy recomendable. Compraré más si hay temáticas que me interesen.
