Time travel through the history of Ancient Egypt as seen through the eyes of one family

Take a tour through the vast past of Ancient Egypt as you follow the adventures of one family through time.

Travel with one friendly family through 3,000 years of jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring history, discovering how ancient people worked, played, fought, and feasted, and featuring some of the huge historical figures that marked their lives.

Experience the sights, smells, and sounds of the river Nile as you hunt for food with fisherman's son Hanu. Flip the page and suddenly feel the heat of the blistering desert as his descendant Hemira watches her father heave stones up the epic Great Pyramid. Years later, watch soldier Minuser prepare for battle as regional rulers fight for more power. Each new character has their own unique story, as they encounter mummies, pharaohs, gods, and much more!

From the earliest people farming the land right up to the end of Egypt, uncover the first-hand story of the civilization that shaped the world.
