Ancient Egypt is one of the most evocative cultures for young readers. This book shows them what their lives would have been like there. There was no school, since most people couldn’t read or write, and no need to worry about fashion, because children didn’t wear clothes! Rich or poor, their houses would have been made of mud bricks. If I Were a Kid in Ancient Egypt takes readers through daily life in a vibrant culture that pioneered paper, linen, irrigation, medicine, and much more, and shows how these inventions came about and how they affected the culture’s younger citizens.

This review is from: If I Were a Kid in Ancient Egypt: Children of the Ancient World (Hardcover)
I used this book to write up a social studies unit focusing on Ancient Egypt for 6th graders. Although the text is easily understood by lower grades the information in here is excellent. This book allows students to really step into a different time period and experience a different culture altogether.

We got this book in advance of a family trip to Egypt. The information appears in an accessible and colorful way; any child (or adult) will learn a lot about many aspects of ancient Egyptian culture, without feeling lectured.
