Designed to accompany the groundbreaking TV series 'The Egyptians', these superbly illustrated children's books look at one of the world's earliest civilisations, exploring how the people lived, loved, worshipped and died.
Printed in full colour throughout, the books feature stunning computer-generated images created using cutting-edge technology. These images, along with live-action stills from the TV series, museum artefacts and in situ photography, combine to create a unique visual experience that will appeal to children in the 7 to 12 age range, as well as a wider family audience.
With a host of fascinating fact boxes and special features, the books explore major themes in the story of Ancient Egypt, from Pharaohs and Gods, and Wars and Warfare, to Crime and Punishment and Rituals of Death. Within this thematic context are related the extraordinary events surrounding real-life incidents, as featured in the TV series.
