Product Information
Booklist 1st October 2023 "This volume of the Factology series (4 titles) jauntily skips along through the history and culture of ancient Egypt. It will be most appreciated by visual learners and browsers, who can easily jump around as different topics catch their fancy. The first chapter, "Epic Egypt," is a hodgepodge of interesting accolades and trivia, touching on ancient Egyptians' early advances in medicine, their love of art, and "Cleopatra's Beauty Secrets." Religion and funerary practices are examined in the second chapter, and the third (and final) chapter is devoted to Egyptology and important discoveries. Highly visual, this fact-packed offering utilizes a plethora of photos, digital art, diagrams, and maps." @mrsbrownsbookbox Instagram review https: //www.instagram.com/p/CwhOvjhKJu1/ "My class are huge fans of the Great Lives in Graphics books and I know that this new Factology series (this one is part of a series of 4 books) will be snapped up immediately too. Similar in its graphic style, this utterly absorbing book presents so much information in an engaging way, through timelines, fact files, diagrams, photos, 'did you know..?' and '...in numbers' boxes and much much more. There's also jokes, hidden items and activities interspersed throughout and a quiz at the end that make you look, think and test your knowledge too!" @raising_bookworms Instagram review https: //www.instagram.com/p/Cxxxss7q7zi/ "Throwing the series spotlight this week on the brand new Factology information books from @gmcpublications.
