About the Book

In ancient times, there were TWO very rich African civilizations located on the banks of the river Nile. Both were ruled by pharaohs, turned their rulers & nobles into mummies, had hieroglyphic writing, and built pyramids. One was ancient Egypt but what was the name of the other one? In a comprehensive yet fun and engaging activity book format, Step Back in Time to Ancient Kush brings the little-known ancient Kingdom of Kush alive for readers. Based in today's Sudan, fans of ancient Egypt will enjoy learning about this neighbouring Nile valley civilization. With a careful combination of facts and activities to encourage reluctant readers, superb black & white line drawings to capture children's interest, full-colour keepsake paper dolls in historical Kushite costume included and an illustrated glossary of new words included. Step Back in Time to Ancient Kush is designed to encourage a love of learning that can last a lifetime. To be used by children with the help of their parent(s) or guardian.

Table of Contents:
Where was ancient Kush?; Kings and Queens; Crown the Royals!; Spot the difference (pyramid architecture); Kushite Gods and Goddesses; Maze; What's out of place; Vases and vessels; Dressing Up; Word Search; Animals of Kush; Food Unscramble; Wealth Unscramble; Reading & Writing; Colouring Fun; The Grand Finale; Glossary; Answers.

About the Author :
K.N. Chimbiri is a children's Black History author. In addition to teaching workshops on ancient African history, she has appeared in three documentaries, including the award-winning Nubian Spirit; The African Legacy of the Nile Valley. A member of the Sudan Archaeological Research Society for many years, her love for and knowledge of this area has directly influenced this book.

Review :
This is a fun activity book aimed at 8 to 12-year-olds to introduce them, not to ancient Egypt, but to the second major civilisation on the River Nile - one often overlooked in publications for adults, let alone for children - the Kingdom of Kush. In just twenty pages, there is a severe limitation on the content, but concise information is included, along with scenes that can be coloured in, word searches, puzzles and stand-up paper dolls. Learning about Kush can be fun too! An internet link is also available, which provides additional information for younger readers and perhaps even teachers too.(Ancient Egypt magazine).
