About the author

Lesley dreamed of being a writer, but studied law as her mother insisted she had "something to fall back on". Since joining Usborne Publishing, she has written and edited hundreds of books, from funny rhyming stories to an award-winning history book. Nowadays, she is often found recording books, too, in Usborne's very own recording studio.

Reviews

[Sophie Crane]

Engaging approach to teaching about the lifestyle of ancient Egypt. Beautiful illustrations and concentrates on the people and topics rather than on 'dynasties'.

Вече можем да се отправим на това чудно пътешествие, подготвено специално от писателката Лесли Симс, в компанията на цели шестима художници и консултант историк. Прочетете ревюто на "Книжни Криле":
