Discovering Egyptians is an authoritative book about life in Ancient Egypt for 7 to 11-year-olds. It focuses on the golden age of Rameses II when Ancient Egypt was at the height of its power and prosperity. In 14 superbly illustrated sections it covers all aspects of life in the world's first major ancient civilization, from food, transport and dress to housing, religion and health. It also looks in detail at mummies, pharaohs, sphinxes and heiroglyphs. Open the vividly illustrated pages and you will be transported over 3,000 years back in time to the baking hot Nile valley and find out what happens to Ipu, a young Egyptian girl living in the time of Rameses II, as she goes on an exciting search for her pet bird. Red Kite Books' Discovering series has two special features setting it apart from the competition: a story told in verse running along the bottom of each spread and a fantastic free gift tucked inside the back cover. In Discovering Egyptians, the free gift is a blue and gold Tutankhamun-style pharaoh's mask.
