A group of contemporary Egyptian children visits some major tourist sites: the pyramids of Giza, the temple at Abu Simbel, Cairo, and more. The simple rhyming text is accompanied by bright mixed-media illustrations. Appended material (mostly about ancient Egypt) is written for older children but would give teachers and parents background information to share with the primary audience.
