From sacred cats to the invention of toothpaste, Blue Peter Award winning author David Long takes readers on an intriguing investigation into the ancient Egyptian civilisation.

The incredible civilisation of ancient Egypt lasted for 3,000 years. Ruled over by pharaohs, the Egyptians developed agricultural skills and trading partnerships that enabled them to build a rich and powerful nation centred on the Nile.

Far more advanced than any European coutnries at the time, the Egyptians achieved incredible feats of building, created a new way of writing, and revolutionised farming.

Find out what life as an ancient Egyptian was actually like, both for pharaohs and ordinary people, in this fascinating new exploration by award-winning author David Long.

Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.

For fans of Joe Todd-Stanton (Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx), Matt Goodfellow (The Final Year), Katherine Rundell (The Wolf Wilder), Elisa Paganelli (Danger at Dead Man's Pass), and Lindsay Galvin (A Discovery of Dragons).
