This explains the history of how King Tut was originally buried and preserved, and then later found. It is well-written, with a number of pictures of the treasures from his tomb, and illustrations of the events. This is sure to delight any young Egyptologist, and to interest others.
This book is a first reader type book. Works well with a phonic approach to reading. incorporating an introduction to Ancient Egyptian History. It provides basic information about the discovery and preservation of King Tut.
