In typical Usborne fashion this book covers the building of the Egyptian pyramids with a thourough body of facts and intricate illustrations for children. The reading level is around fourth grade and up but it would be a great read-aloud for second to third graders as well. I also like the fact that, as noted on the back of the book, the paper is made from trees grown in a "sustainable forest" setting a good example for our kids.
