Ancient Egypt

What was life like in ancient Egypt? Did everyone spend their lives building pyramids and writing mysterious symbols on stone walls? Not exactly! Egyptian families had much more to do than that. Some women had jobs being professional weepers! Dinners were often cooked on the roof, and everyone kept a close eye on whether the water in the Nile was going up or down. Travel back in time and find out what it was like to work for a pharaoh, how long kids went before they had to wear clothes, and other fascinating details about this period in history. Book jacket.
