Travel back in time to ancient Egypt in this picture book from award-winning illustrator Satoshi Kitamura, perfect to support the Key Stage 2 History curriculum.
When a boy gets lost exploring a museum, he finds himself falling through time and landing in ancient Egypt! This engaging story reveals what daily life was life in ancient Egypt, how to decode hieroglyphs and even how the pyramids were built. Packed with extra information, this is the ideal introduction to a fascinating subject.
My #PictureBookFriday is a book you’ve got to use in your history lessons when studying ancient Egypt, Pyramid Boy! Coming from the author of Stone Age Boy, this is a wonderfully informative story which unpacks ancient Egyptian life, decoding hieroglyphics and exploring how pyramids were built. Beautifully illustrated too, I love all the information at the back too, which will really appeal to budding historians and archaeologists. * Check ‘Em Out Books *
The charming colour illustrations capture the ins-and-outs of the lives of the people in an almost-graphic novel style, which is a great way to engage younger readers.
This title is sure to follow the success of Satoshi’s Stone Age Boy published in 2008, which has become a classic and a popular resource in primary schools.
