Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 2-4-- Both of these books are very elementary in their analyses. The colorful, full-page illustrations and photographs will definitely attract young readers. Each title consists of two-page treatments of specific topics: in Egyptian Farmers, irrigation techniques, planting, harvesting, and animal husbandry are briefly discussed; in Viking Warriors, weapons, forts, religious beliefs, and settlements are presented in a balanced manner that avoids sensationalism. Kerr's book seems especially useful since it covers the everyday life of the common people of Egypt as opposed to those of the pharaohs and nobles. No books on ancient cultures should be without maps, but, unfortunately, these are. The suggested reading lists in both books limit themselves to other Watts titles. --David N. Pauli, Missoula Public Library, MT
