"One of the world's oldest continuous civilizations began about five thousand years ago, in the land of Egypt. For the next three thousand years the Egyptians were ruled by kings called pharaohs. While he was in power, each pharaoh was believed to be Horus, the son of the great sun god, Re.
The ancient Egyptians lived in northeast Africa along the Nile River. They called the dark and fertile soil around the Nile the "Black Land" and used it for growing their crops."
Detailed illustrations and informative facts introduce children to the world of ancient Egypt through a review of sacred animals gods, hieroglyphics, monuments, and profiles of the pharaohs who ruled at that time.
Travel back in time to one of the world's oldest civilizations! Gibbons' child-friendly format helps readers understand ancient pharaohs, gods, monuments and hieroglyphics.
