Illustrations beg the reader to touch. Includes map, genealogy. ( )

The text and breathtaking images bring Tutankhamun to life through the explanation of traditional religious beliefs and the description of a pharaoh’s life, including ostrich and lion hunts

An informational story about The Great Pharaoh Tut. Includes plenty of information about the new kingdom of Egypt and how Tutankhamun brought back religious freedom. Pictures seem to jump off the page with glossy illustration. ( )

Unfortunately, I did not particularly enjoy this book. The illustrations in the book were beautiful and they were created to match the words in the book perfectly. The book touched on far more than King Tut himself, so I was a little confused in the beginning. I didn't seem like a biography, but more like a bunch of facts thrown together into book form. There were too many blunt facts back to back so it made reading the book very hard. This particular biography is probably the most horribly written biography I have ever read. I also understand that it may have been hard to get a full story of King Tut's life, but it still could've been a little better. ( )

"Tutankhamun" is full of striking, shiny illustrations that will captivate readers. It gives a spiritual and historical history of egypt and one of its most famous rulers, King Tut.
