🌟 Recommendation Details
Who can resist the allure of ancient Egypt — and the thrill of uncovering mysteries that have lain hidden for thousands of years? Not the feisty Miss Emily Sands, who in 1926, four years after the discovery of King Tut's tomb, led an expedition up the Nile in search of the tomb of the god Osiris. Alas, Miss Sands and crew soon vanished into the desert, never to be seen again. But luckily, her keen observations live on in the form of a lovingly kept journal, full of drawings, photographs, booklets, foldout maps, postcards, and many other intriguing samples. My Recommendation: Although the AR level for this is on the high end, the information and how it's presented isn't that difficult An interactive nonfiction book which makes it fun to read while learning facts from Egypt. (Note that since it's a journal like nonfiction format, the events the journalist has gone through may not be true since there is scant evidence, but the information given about Egypt itself is accurate.)
