Richard Platt illustrated by David Parkins
Egyptian Diary: The Journal of Nakht
Walker (64 pages) 9781406301724
The 'diary' of a boy who lives at the time of King Hatshepsut tells of both everyday life at the time and of his particular adventures and journeys. The sites of antiquity he visits are alive and thrumming with activity. His eyes take in a hippo being hunted and a tomb being robbed and the narrative words are enhanced by stunning illustrations with nicely humorous touches. A very enjoyable and informative book for all ages in an award-winning format.
