Wow, what a gorgeous book! Immediately the illustrations made me interested to read it.
I love learning about history, but often big non-fiction books are too much information at once. That's why when I saw this I was immediately curious. Books for younger ages are often more clear and a fun way to learn, and that is exactly what happened!
This book tells the story of a war between Ancient Egypt and Persia. I don't know about education in other countries, but here in The Netherlands I never learned about this in school.
I really enjoyed this as an adult (well, as adult I can be at 20) and I can only imagine how fun this book would be for children. It is beautifully illustrated, the cat puns made me laugh, and the explanation is clear and easy to read. I definitely would recommend to kids (and adults!) who enjoy history or cats. I'm sure they would enjoy this book as well. I have absolutely nothing negative to say.
Thank you Netgalley for allowing me to read this ARC! This book will be published on October 1st, 2024.
