The best mystery of Ancient Egypt for younger children!<\/h3>\n

At any time and in any place, when there is a mystery to be solved, a ten-year-old boy will want to have a hand in it. So it was with Kaffe, an Egyptian boy of long ago. With his friend Sari, a slave-girl, Kaffe had many adventures\u2014the harvest feast, the fight of the bulls, the flood. Then came the mystery of the pyramid\u2019s missing jewels and a dark night when Kaffe, his father, and Sari set out to catch the thief.<\/p>\n

This wonderful book had been out of print for years. We\u2019re thrilled to bring it back and make it available for a new generation of students to enjoy!<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Gentle, Yet Exciting, Mystery<\/strong>\u2014No murders or grizzly mummy stories here. Readers are eased into the mystery of the missing jewels with some clues and characters among the first chapters, then the excitement builds as they set out to catch the thief.<\/li>\n
  • Appropriate<\/strong>\u2014Deals with some of the potentially sordid details of this ancient culture in a manner totally appropriate for young children. It mentions some of the Egyptian gods and beliefs about death as part of the story, but does not dwell on them or sensationalize them.<\/li>\n
  • Comprehensive<\/strong>\u2014Masterfully weaves many aspects of Ancient Egypt into the story line: homes, meals, feasts, slaves, architecture, Nile River, transportation, trades, geography, climate, clothing, social classes, temple, palace, pharaoh, entertainment, annual flood, agriculture, shadufs, currency, pyramids, tomb robbers, neighboring cultures, farming, and more!<\/li>\n
  • Illustrated<\/strong>\u2014The beautiful pen and ink drawings do as much to help children learn about Ancient Egypt as the story does. Wonderfully illustrated by Dorothy Bayley Morse.<\/li>\n
  • Award-Winning<\/strong>\u2014Written by Ruth Fosdick Jones and originally published in 1950, this book won the Jack and Jill Prize Contest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":23356,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[671,282],"product_tag":[],"composite_virtual":false,"composite_layout":"","composite_add_to_cart_form_location":"","composite_editable_in_cart":false,"composite_sold_individually_context":"","composite_shop_price_calc":"","composite_components":[],"composite_scenarios":[],"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"yoast_head":"\nBoy of the Pyramids - Classical Education Books<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/boy-of-the-praymids\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Boy of the Pyramids - Classical Education Books\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u00a0Sample The best mystery of Ancient Egypt for younger children!
