Product Description
Khepri meets the Pharaoh, Prince of Egypt, for the first time one morning in the shadow of the temple walls, and a friendship springs up between them. When Khepri discovers a terrible trap in the Pharaoh's newly-built tomb designed to kill, he knows he must warn the Prince. But how? For Khepri is just a small scarab beetle who scuttles along floors, among roots and into baskets of figs. How Khepri saves the Pharaoh's life and receives the highest honour of all is hauntingly told and dramatically illustrated in an original tale of ancient Egypt, which includes an historical end note on tomb-building and the Pharaohs.

I bought this book for my Egyptian topic in Year 3/4. The pictures were fabulous, with a simple story that could be followed easily. However, I did think that for my use of telling about Egypt, it didn't give as much background information as I'd liked.

Not Much of a Story-Dissapointing
24 Nov 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this book to read to my six year old daughter. I was hoping for a mythic story that we could integrate into our study of Ancient Egypt. We were rather dissapointed with this book. The story revolves around a scarab beetle that saves a Prince from being caught in a booby trap. The story was not very interesting and gave us little new insight into Egyptian history. Not recommended.
