Description
A children's introduction to the ancient Egyptian language and Hieroglyphic script. Rather lengthy for most children, it is broken down into 35 manageable chapters. The tone and subject matter appeals to school children. It is clearly intended for the die-hard ancient Egypt enthusiast who just *has* to learn Hieroglyphics, and is willing to spend the time and effort it takes to master the language. An ideal book for a young, but gifted, child with a passion for the subject.
