Reviews for Look Inside Mummies & Pyramids

A lovely book full of facts and bright colours. The children were intrigued to find out what was behind the flaps and this kept their interest, as did the gruesome details - such as a jar containing lungs and intestines in the tombs. The cardboard pages also make the book sturdy which is great in a busy children's environment. It is a great resource for teaching an understanding of this time period. * Primary Teacher Update * Children will become engrossed in the detail of mummification and the construction of pyramids. The pages are full of fascinating snippets of detail and the amazingly detailed illustrations are amusing as well as informative. * Parents in Touch * With over 70 flaps to lift to reveal fascinating facts about Ancient Egypt, including a pag on archaeological discovery, this is an excellent introduction to the period. * London Mums Magazine * Guaranteed to capture any child's imagination, the little Egyptologist is taken on a tour of the pyramids, invited to examine a funeral procession, and there is a fantastic double page spread on the process of mummification... Look inside Mummies and Pyramids works on a number of levels for a range of ages. * Culturebaby * Look inside Mummies and Pyramids is a colourful, beautifully presented book. There are lift-up flaps on every page which reveal all kinds of secrets and wonders. For a young child this book is absolutely fascinating... yet another wonderful history book from Usborne! * Adventures in Home Schooling *
