If I Were a Kid in Ancient Egypt: Children of the Ancient World- Book
This book looks really interesting because we can connect our lives to children of Ancient Egypt. I think it would be neet to make a venn diagram using this book as a reference. This book talks about pets and playtime, school, family, manners, and much much more.

From the British Museum -
It contains information about Egyptian life, pyramid building, Egyptian's three forms of writing, trades of the Egyptians, geography, time, mumification, and about gods and goddesses.
This will be helpful when we study hieroglyphic and pyramid building.
