The lyrical storytelling of award-winning author Donna Jo Napoli dramatizes the timeless tales of ancient Egypt in the year when Angelina Jolie will make Cleopatra a multimedia star. And just like the popular National Geographic Treasury of Greek Mythology , the stories in this book will be beautifully illustrated to bring ancient characters vividly to life. The stories are embellished with sidebars that provide historical, cultural, and geographic context and a mapping feature that adds to the fun and fascination. Resource notes and ample back matter direct readers to discover more about ancient Egypt. With its attractive design and beautiful narrative, this accessible treasury stands out from all other mythology titles in the marketplace. Review: Perfect for homeschooling! - We used this book as part of a homeschooling writing curriculum. My kids were interested in the stories and I enjoyed them as well. The illustrations are magnificent and really help the stories to stand out. This was a win for us! Review: Beautifully written! - I am a 7th grade language arts teacher and I could not wait for this book to arrive. I already own Napoli's Treasury of Greek Mythology, and her Egyptian storybook is equally as wonderful as the Greek one. Napoli writes with such a compelling sense of voice that readers are pulled into the stories. Egyptian mythology is complicated, especially to young readers, but Napoli is a masterful storyteller and she is able to create such beautiful, accessible stories from a complex, ancient set of stories. She has clearly done her research, as there is a really helpful section explaining information such as the origins of names, the variations of details over time and her decision process as she wrote, how the Greeks influenced the stories and names. The stories also have inset boxes with nonfiction information about details related to the stories -- funeral practices, mummification, hieroglyphs, building of pyramids, legally accepted practices at the time, desert life, etc). The illustrations are gorgeous. I would say this book is geared for middle school and above readers, but would be well suited for read-alouds with younger children. It's a must-have for anyone teaching about ancient Egyptian society and mythology. Love, love, LOVE this book!!! ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #50,470 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #8 in Children's Middle Eastern History #38 in Children's Ancient History #5,677 in Politics & Social Sciences (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,054 Reviews | ## Images ![Treasury of Egyptian Mythology: Classic Stories of Gods, Goddesses, Monsters & Mortals (National Geographic Treasuries) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91EJk8V4HNL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for homeschooling! *by H***2 on January 19, 2026* We used this book as part of a homeschooling writing curriculum.
