FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES

Egyptian Mythology

32 pp. | ABDO | January, 2011 | Library ISBN 978-1-61714-719-7 $27.07
(4) 4-6 World of Mythology series. Each book provides an overview of mythology from the title region. Folktales and legends, rituals and beliefs, creation stories, and deities are all very briefly covered. Well-placed images (some, oddly, sourced through Wikipedia) enhance the texts. There is occasional redundancy across volumes, and readers may be frustrated by the spotty glossaries and lack of pronunciations. Otherwise, they're acceptable introductions. Ind. Review covers these World of Mythology titles: African Mythology, Chinese Mythology, Egyptian Mythology, and European Mythology.
