Where was this book when I was younger? I always wanted to be an Egyptologist when I was younger. This book was fascinating. I learned so much about the Egyptian culture and their way of life. It talked about the pharaohs and their way of life, but it also told about the people of Egypt and how they lived and survived. The illustrations in this story are fantastic! They are colorful and vibrant. The illustrations go great with the text and they allow you to see what Egypt was like at that time. I really connected to this story, because I have always been interested in Ancient Egypt. I had a blast reading it. I even read some of it to my younger brother, who was reading it over my shoulder. It was great to take me back to my elementary school days! :)
