The Egyptology Handbook: A Course in the Wonders of Egypt (Ologies)

bit small than original but kids enjoyed

It's a "children's" book but I'm 22 and I read this last year and I enjoyed it so much. I bought the big Egyptology book when I was 10 and I actually like the handbooks a little more than the main ologys just because they're presented in a cleaner fashion; the main Ology books are in the format of journals so their fonts are supposed to be handwritten and it's much easier to read the clean fonts presented in the handbooks. I really did learn a lot from this book even as a young adult, so I'd recommend this even to adults trying to learn about ancient Egypt. The handbooks vs the big Ology books: I think the handbooks actually have a lot more information and still have fun things in the back of the book, too. I still own a Lot of the big ones and I recommend them both!

MY GRANDSON JUST LOVED THIS BOOK. HE LOVES MUMMIES AND KING TUK AND THE PHAROAHS. HE MEMORIZED THE HIEROGLYPHIC CHART AND TRIES TO TRANSLATE THE WRITINGS ON THE TOMBS AND WALLS ETC. HE MAKES MUMMIES OUT OF CHICKEN BONES!

Beautifully bound. Wonderful artwork. Stickers. Little extras that add to the story. You are sure to find this a perfect addition to your ology collection.

Excellent book, a good one to add to my collection.
