This I definitely a nice introduction to Ancient Egypt, written from an interesting point of view - the one of the population. With general information in boxes and additional pictures it gives the reader a first insight into the culture. This is not a book for a pro though.

Soscha I wish I could have been one though, an Egyptologist pro. Though I‘d probably be more about Sumerians now. Or just the human Homo evolution. Hominins & such. It still fascinates. If I ever win lotto which I won‘t that‘s what I go back to complete a BA & MA, and maybe a plus. 1w

I bought this series some time ago because someone posted it here on Litsy and I found it intriguing. After being in my Kindle library for over one year now, I finally started it. 🥳🥳🥳

This book is great for teaching about cultural diversity and global citizenship. Students can compare their own daily routines with those of children in other countries.

Releasing all of the new books at work has made me more inclined to read more children‘s books in the meantime.

This is an adorable book about what the sun does for people all around the world ☀️; looking at it possibly being read for the summer reading kickoff! 📚

Thanks to @MoonWitch94 advertising #TheFlowerLetters newest year long story, I signed up to receive Adelaide Magnolias and Captain Liam Mattice Regency “Jane Austen” like story!!! I can‘t wait for the first letter to come in September!!!

Unless you sign up for the newsletter in the next couple of days, it won‘t be available until August 1, 2022. https://theflowerletters.com/pages/home

CaramelLunacy These sound fascinating. Thanks for sharing 3y
CrowCAH @CaramelLunacy I agree! It will be my first time receiving a subscription letter, but these flowers looked too pretty to pass on. And I‘m sure the story will be beautiful too! 3y
CaramelLunacy I tried Letters From Afar and while they were gorgeous, they were aimed a bit too young for me. I'm over here trying to decide which to try first! 3y
CrowCAH @CaramelLunacy yeah, I‘m not sure the age their aiming for as an audience, since nothing was mentioned in the site. Let me know if you decide on one of the other characters. 3y

3/5 ⭐️ This is definitely not an academic source, although there are some references to writings and art from Ancient Egypt. I had some problems with the way the dialogue and interactions were written, they just seemed very western and modern to me. But, I do know from other sources that much of the historical information is correct. I would recommend to someone who wants to read about Ancient Egypt but isn‘t accustomed to historical texts.
