From School Library Journal:
Grade 2-3-This short introduction to ancient Egypt will pique interest while imparting information. Readers learn about the importance of the Nile as the book opens and are reminded of it at the conclusion, an effective way to wrap things up. Topics include the Egyptian calendar, writing, and daily life, as well as the life of a ruler. A discussion of irrigation projects explains that they not only controlled the flooding of the Nile but also gave Egyptians experience measuring and marking things carefully. A full-color photo or illustration appears on almost every page; it is unfortunate that the pictures of artifacts are not identified by their period. A glossary defines words highlighted in the text and helps with pronunciation. This appealing book should excite beginning readers about a topic they will study again and again.
