This book is a wonderful tool for teaching children about another culture's religion and way of life. It has brilliant pictures of the Gods like Isis, Osiris, Horus, Anubis, etc and the format is easy to follow. It tells all about the struggles they faced such as when Seth killed Osiris and when Isis went below to retrive him. You can read it to your child or your class at school or they can read it themselves. For any child that is interested in history outside the U.S. this is a must have for them. This book is wonderful for broadening a childs mind. I reccomend it to anyone.
a great resource book for a 5th grade reaserch paper on gods ad goddesses in egypt
Helped me a lot with my 6th grade Gods research for my project
OK this is a kids book and a real simple one too, but it has come in real handy when I was explaining things about the Ancient Egyptian Pantheon to my colleagues at University. LOLI think it is simple, yet it gives just enough information for someone to understand the pantheon (of course not in academic terms).
My disapointment came when I was mislead by the company because I was decieved. The book supposedly was illustrated to be a level higher than it was. I assumed this book was an adult reading and not a child's info-study. Because the book cost only $6 I will not ask for a refund; however, in the future I believe there should be better communications between the customer and the supplier. Thank You for your time and I hope in the future that we will be able to work better together so I will have a mutual agreement and purchase more Egyptian itmes. Thank You.
