What a lovely and fun interactive book! Kind of like a minute museum, with fold outs and pop ups and things that move. It shares a good amount of Egyptian history and lore. Great for inquisitive minds of all sizes!
Something very good has been happening in children's non-fiction over the past few years. This is something to add to that realm of good things. Big, bold and rather deliciously put together, Egyptomania is a look at several key aspects of Ancient Egypt. Where this book differs is that it's a hybrid of fact and papercraft; nearly every page has a fold out or a tag to explore further.

Beautifully illustrated and factual. The pop-ups, flaps, and graphic art style made this an engaging read. The only thing detracting from the work was an at times stilted feel to the script and only two listed sources in the copy I had. Other than that, a truly lovely book for anyone interested in Ancient Egypt or any child learning about the culture.

This is practically a “lift the flap” encyclopedia! Great information with an attractive and interactive design.
Why we chose this book:
I have been fascinated by ancient Egypt since I was in sixth grade. Happily for me, T became interested in the ancient Egyptians when he was two and acquired Playmobil History figures of an Egyptian warrior, a servant, and Cleopatra. Laurence King Publishing provided a copy for review.
Mom's Review (V)
An introduction to ancient Eyptian life and death.
I wish that I could have had this book as a kid, or at least as a teacher when I taught my sixth graders about ancient Egypt! ...more

This is an impressive book! Not just the size (15″x11″) , but also the content. Saturno does a great job summarizing a ton of information on a wide range of topics relating to Ancient Egypt in a clear and concise way. The cover is just stunning. I love the style Guliani uses. When you open the book, you see the variety of topics like the Nile, Pharaohs, ways of life in ancient Egypt, temples, gods, and much more.
