Inside this indispensable and beautifully illustrated workbook is everything you need to know to become an esteemed Egyptologist.
As readers of the fascinating EGYPTOLOGY are all too aware, the feisty explorer Emily Sands mysteriously vanished on an expedition up the Nile in 1927. But in a remarkable turn of fortune for Miss Sands's many fans, detectives have uncovered a second volume penned in her own hand — a course book on ancient Egyptian history and culture intended for the voyager's beloved niece and nephew. Now available to budding Egyptologists everywhere, this comprehensive volume — illustrated by the same artists who lent their talents to EGYPTOLOGY — is brimming with facts on ancient Egyptian culture and history, followed by intriguing assignments and fill-in opportunities on everything from archaeological finds to theories on how the pyramids were built.
Among the book's delightful novelty elements are:
— An envelope containing Miss Emily Sands's Top Ten Things to See in Egypt
— Flaps to lift, revealing hidden treasure in desert sands
— A four-page foldout section full of stickers featuring treasures from King Tut's tomb and other ancient Egyptian artifacts.

This is a fun handbook for children that have an interest in Egyptology or as a book to encourage them to take an interest in history. Written from the guiding perspective of an aunt, Emily Sands, to her niece and nephew, the book has many opportunities to engage in educational activities. Topics span from the pre-dynastic history, language, everyday activities and death and mummification. Although the time period is set at 1926-27, initiated parents could supplement the activities with online searches, since much has changed about Egyptology since the 1920s. However, parents please monitor any online searches for age-appropriate content.
There a few interactive pieces at the very beginning of the book, but those types of activities quickly give way to text based activities. I had expected there would be more of those, so I was a little disappointed by that. Additionally, there are sheets of stickers in the back of the book, which are colorful representations of the same rendered in black and white throughout the pages.
