"I ordered this book to give to my 9-year-old niece, and it's exactly what I was hoping for. The author's writing style is accessible to young readers and clearly speaking to them, without giving the impression of talking down to them or dumbing down the content--which I know my niece, as an avid reader, will appreciate." -- Customer Review

Review Quotes:
"This book is not just interesting for children - even if you are an adult, it is a good way way to learn highlights of Egyptian history in a nicely abridged manner. The book is aesthetically appealing and includes engrossing photographs, such as an ancient game board, and a musical instrument called a sistrum. I liked how the author included a glossary of relevant terms as well as a "family tree of the gods." It's a fun, educational book!" -- Customer Review
