See Inside Ancient Egypt - Usborne Flap Books

Bought to read aloud to two granddaughters, they have loved this book and hinted strongly that “I might order other books like this about places and people” :D They sit on either side and take turns opening the flaps. They love all the details. The pyramid/burial page was probably their favorite but they were intently interested in all of it. I like the way the book tells about all levels of society including some folks poking around where they shouldn’t have been, laborers, wealthy people, royalty. The 7 year old is not yet fully reading and once we read the text she could return to the book and page through the book on her own. Two big thumbs up!

It was a gift. The 5-year-old boy was very happy and read many times, as he was interested in all the details.

We love these books, and this once is no exception. My son loves the flaps and there are tons of interesting facts!

Great book - yes, it is a 'pocket door' book where you open a small panel to see what is behind it, but it is as much for adults or young adults as it is for kids. The information is true and factual with supporting evidence, and the way it is illustrated really brings Ancient Egypt to life. I also purchased the one for Ancient Rome for my students. They love these books and each time they read it, one of them finds something new to share....

My 9yo daughter loves this book. Opening the flaps makes it fun, finding out what's under each one. She continues reading this book, long after we finished studying Ancient Egypt.

It's a great way to spark an interest in a child.

Excellent. Love these books.

Great book for my daughter who loves Ancient Egypt

I cannot get enough of these Usborne books !!! I started to look into children s book only 8.months ago ( my child ha 8 month old ;)) and i m hooked on these series! My litttle girl has the 'see inside', look nside, peep inside seriea almost completed and Now i am getting her the 'lift the flap very first questions'series.. i love them !

Well drawn with digestible snippets of history. Lifting the flaps to see a little story of life in ancient egypt makes for an easy introduction to history for 7+8 year olds.

Excellent Content for adding knowledge about Egyptian History. The flaps reveal very interesting facts.

This is the third book in the collection we have bought for our 6 year old son. The others were ' Your Body ' and ' How things work' . He loved those two so when he was appearing as an Egyptian in his school play and wanted to know more about Egypt , I knew this would be a perfect book to do the job. The books are quite sturdy and the topics in this book are as follows.. Market Day The mighty Nile At the temple How the rich live Great pyramids Royal burial Egypt in ruins Who was who Each topic is spread over two pages, except the last two in the list..one page. The book has over 70 flaps to lift with facts and some funny quips underneath. Very informative book with lots of detailed illustrations throughout but easy enough for a young child to understand. Our favourite is the section on pyramids which greatly explains how these amazing structures were built , a job so big my son can't get his head around it. I am very pleased with the book and actually enjoy sitting reading through it and talking about it with my son, more than I enjoy playing video games with him, which says a lot..I love video games :) These books are great and there are so many different subjects in the collection so you will be sure to find something your child is interested in. I hope to have built up quite a collection of these by the time he's older
