Great pic !! My grand daughter loves this book. It is well written with "loads" of information. Can be used as a reference book or for just the enjoyment of learning new information. The book gives us a true look into the lives of the leaders of Egypt. You will love this book for you or children.

Got this for my Aspergers/autistic son, he is a lover of history, he can read books like this for hours. DK is a format that I love reading myself, it educates and entertains with facts and rich illustrations, DK is the best in my opinion

I loved reading the book.

I got this for my nieces after we went to a museum exhibit of reproductions from King Tut's tomb. They love it! Heck, I love it!

My son loves it

Excellent product: I got this for my Grand Daughter and she loved it, lots of great photos and illustrations.

Very responsive and efficient, at a good price. Customer was very pleased.

Great resource for my students and I.
