The Treasury of Egyptian Mythology

Charlotte was studying ancient Egypt in school last Spring.  I found these books on our shelves and read a little to her but, though very interesting, they aren't exactly kid friendly.  I confess I know very little about Egyptian gods and mythology.  So this big book was a treat for me as well.  I absolutely love the illustrations.  And the writing is quite good too as the creation myths and and various gods and goddesses are told.

As a final treat (while the world was in Covid lockdown) we "toured" the Egyptian rooms at the British Museum.  It was really neat!
