Table of Contents Ancient EgyptTreasures of EgyptLuxor TemplePyramidsPyramids in GizaValley of the Kings Review "Gr 2-4--The mysteries of ancient Egypt have fascinated audiences for generations. Using large scale info-maps, Ruzicka jams thousands of years of history into very few pages. Rich in information and explanation, the book begins with a quick overview of the landscape and locations relevant to the ancient lands, discussing the class system, temples, tombs, and more. Using simple cartoon diagrams and illustrations, the pages take readers through the building of the pyramids, the highlights of major temples and tombs with scenes of what they would have looked like completed, and progressing through time to the present day. The lack of photos or more detailed sketches is unfortunate. The quick explanation of Egyptians gods may leave readers wanting more and the lack of information on hieroglyphics is an odd omission. However, on the map of the Valley of the Kings, some of Egypts queens are highlighted and given recognition for their contributions. VERDICT Overall, this unique format, overwhelming amount of facts, labeled diagrams, and explanation of some traditions will give any budding Egyptologist something to savor." —Erin Olsen, School Library Journal"This fully illustrated atlas explores Ancient Egypt in six fold-out, large-format maps. See what many beautiful Egyptian buildings would have looked like, how they were built, what was inside, and much more! Swipe to see inside this cool book! I would have treasured this book as a kid." Houston Library Finds IG"This book has a ton of information about Ancient Egypt. The illustrations throughout help to expand your knowledge and break up the information. My kids were primarily fascinated by the pyramids of Egypt and this book had so much information we didnt read in other places. Each section has a spread and then a double spread that folds out. The one on the pyramids was our favorite. A great resource for kids interested in Ancient Egypt." My Storytime Corner IG"Dive into Ancient Egyptian history with this fun book!
