ancient egypt coloring bookOct 29, 2000
This is a beautifully designed book. The drawings stand on their own, and teach as well as provide coloring fun. This book is great for 4th to 6th graders. I will be using it to enhance a unit on Ancient Egypt and think the kids will love it.

 Excellent to Color and ReadOct 13, 2004
By Zaba9901
Kids of all ages should love this book. It is historically accurate, and the pictures are easy to color. Just have a lot of "sand" type colors available. The art work is excellent, and the resulting pictures can look really "spiffy" if you use bright colors. There is a nice spectrum of subjects, dealing with everyday life, to nobles & royalty, famous battles, mummies, and ending with Cleopatra meeting Ceasar. A really neat book for the price.

Life in Ancient Egypt Coloring BookJan 20, 2008
By Mylinda Davis Dalton
"Happy Nana"
My granddaughter especially likes this book, she is fascinated with the lives of Ancient Egyptians and the history of that time. These are easy to scan and then print, thus saving the book for more than one use. Good large pictures, not fussy or hard to determine what the picture or item is. Wonderful for young gifted children.

FIND IT AS MUCH FUN AS THE KIDS DOOct 02, 2007
By D. Blankenship
Being a large (and very old) kid myself, I probably enjoy this one as much as the kids do, and they, without exception, are delighted with it. This finished product is quite eye catching and the drawings are simply fun to color-in. As an added bonus, quite a lot can be learned about ancient Egypt and it is interesting to discuss the pictures with the children. This, as has been pointed out by other reviewers, is an excellent supplement for the study of these ancient times. The pictures are well executed, simple, but complex enough to be a bit of a challenge. I find this one best to use for those at around the sixth or fifth grade level. This is one book in a series of book covering our ancient past and is certainly a good addition. Recommend this one highly.
