So You Think You've Got It Bad? A Kid's Life in Ancient Egypt, is a funny and accessible introduction to ancient Egypt.
A kid's life in ancient Egypt might sound like fun with all the cool pyramids and glorious sunny weather, but actually it was rather tough!
In this fascinating book, you'll find hilariously historical facts about how difficult life really was, like:

  • Dodging crocodiles and cleaning up cow dung

  • Fetching water from the well and taking medicine made of fly blood.

  • Running away from trained police monkeys if you did something naughty.

A must-read for kids who love the Horrible Histories series, A Kid's Life in Ancient Egypt is written by award-winning author Chae Strathie. Illustrator, Marisa Morea brings the series to life with her rich, humorous artwork.
Published in collaboration with the British Museum and developed in consultation with the world's leading Egyptologists.

  • Tudors

  • Ancient Greece

  • Medieval Castle
