Telling a story that continues to fascinate young and old readers alike, this powerfully visual book tells the story of the boy Pharaoh, Tutankhamun.

The book explores the story and legacy of Tutankhamun as well as Howard Carter’s ground-breaking discovery of the tomb and the treasures within. The pages are mostly set in eye-catching yellows and blues, evoking the dry heat of the desert set against the powerful Nile.

There is a high image-to-text ratio, which works with the vivid design style of the spreads to give the book a powerful visual edge and helps to break down the topic into manageable bites of information for younger readers. We recommend this for KS2 classes covering the Ancient Egyptians topic.
