Liked that you can dip in and out, don't have to read from first page to last. Like the small fact boxes for reluctant readers. Liked the illustrations. Like the way it makes history interesting and accessible.
Dislike the small text and on many pages there is a Lot of text! Found after is read it I couldn't remember any of the facts! Almost too many facts thrown at you.

I really enjoyed this book ( except from the gruesome bits). It gives you loads of facts about the Ancient Egyptians. I am really into history especially ancient Egyptians. I would recommend lots of other horrible history books. I am planning to read the awful Egyptians next. I just hope it isn't to gruesome!!!!

I found this book really interesting as it had loads if amazing facts in it about the Egyptians! I like how it wasn't all just reading, there was pictures and pages where you could make things. I would recommend this book to ages 10+ as some of it is a bit gory!

It was interesting because the period was 1000's of years ago. It taught you about dynasty's and pharaohs. Hieroglyphics are also mentioned. I liked the illustrations. It was easy to read
