Egyptian Myths: Meet the Gods, Goddesses, and Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt (Ancient Myths)

Product Information

Stellenweise fokussiert sich das Buch meiner Meinung nach jedoch etwas mehr auf Mythen über bekanntere Gottheiten, mir hätten auch Sachen über eher unbekannte Charaktere gefallen. I particularly enjoyed the pages focusing on each individual god and goddess and the illustrations just bring it all to life. The enthralling stories introduce mighty gods and wicked villains, while a handy reference section is packed with information about the ancient Egyptians themselves. It might be aimed at children primarily but I learned so much on my read through - Egyptian mythology is more varied than I ever imagined and I’m glad I got to experience an intro here.

It's time to dive into the Duat underworld, follow scuttling scarab beetles into pyramid tombs, and uncover the story behind mummification. Auch ist es für kindliches Lesen geeignet, bei dem Kinder zuerst das Buch durchblättern und stöbern und erst später die Texte lesen. Including 'Theseus and the Minotaur', 'The 12 Labours of Herakles', and the escapades of 'Jason and the Argonauts', each myth is told in engaging modern language, which is easy for children to understand yet still retains the humour and intrigue of the original tales.Delve into a world of monstrous creatures, magical spells, and warring gods in this thrilling compendium of ancient Egyptian myths. Die Mythen sind gut gegliedert, wichtige Texte und Passagen besonders hervorgehoben, so dass selbstlesende Kinder sich recht gut in diesem Buch zurechtfinden werden.

With 20 exciting tales alongside fascinating historical information, this is a must-have introduction for young readers interested in one of the world’s great early civilizations. Action-packed tales of extraordinary creatures and compelling gods, goddesses, and heroes come to life in this compendium of Norse myths. Ett plus i kanten är uttalsguiden i slutet av boken, jag går ofta dit för att kolla hur vissa ord och namn ska uttalas. Packed with fun facts, amazing pictures, and quizzes, this book really will have children coming back for more! You'll experience a day in the life, discovering the clothing, housing, entertainment, work, and transport of these extraordinary people.

This is a good book for children wanting to learn about Egyptian Myths, but only as a beginning as the myths themselves are lost in the information, the stories not really stories. Egyptian Myths brings the world of ancient Egypt to life and is the perfect gift for children who love history and mythology. Explore the ancient stories told by the Vikings in this exciting new retelling - it's the perfect introduction for kids aged 7-9 who have an interest in mythology. From the creation of the world, to the pharaohs chosen by the gods, these stories chart the full sweep of ancient Egyptian mythology, revealing fascinating elements of culture and religion along the way. Included is a giant fold-out wall chart full of ancient wonders to transform bedroom or classroom walls.
