This a fine book with intriguing detail. There are clear overlay pages so the reader can explore the layers of a mummy's tomb, the mummy's wraps, or an ancient Egyptian ship. I found it fascinating which is why I've held onto it for a few years. My children, however, simply look through it until they reach the mummy and then cry "Eyew!" and toss the book aside. Toss is a figurative term, the book is in excellent shape. But since we all have to make our choices in this life, I am willing to put this up. It's a great nonfiction book for the budding historian or archaeologist. Which apparently does not describe my children.
