Mystery of History Volume 1 Ancient History Booklist

February 9, 2016 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

I have decided to share my process for homeschooling planning for the first time EVER! I am totally excited about Mystery of History and can’t help but share all of my research, planning, and books we own! Yes, believe it or not we already own a nice little collection of Ancient History books which go along quite nicely with Mystery of History Volume 1 Creation to Resurrection!

I am a firm believer in use what you got, check with friends and the library THEN buy if you cannot find what you are looking for. I know that library trips and overdue fines still plague many homeschool families so buying a book for a dollar or less may be much more economical. We are lucky to live in an area that homeschooling qualifies you for a teacher’s card which doesn’t come with fines!

I also buy books super cheap at garage sales, thrift stores, and homeschool used curriculum sales. It just so happens that I had been planning to use a different curriculum to study History 3-4 years ago. This lead me to search out interesting books about different time periods in History which is super awesome. I was just able to grab a stack of Ancient History books and cannot wait to share them with you BEFORE my kids get their hands on them, lol. So here goes to sharing our list of books linked to Amazon using our affiliate links for your reference.

The Mysteries of Ancient Egypt published by Scholastic RL 3

Hieroglyphs from a to Z: A Rhyming Book With Ancient Egyptian Stencils for Kids
Hieroglyphs from A to Z is the first book published by PomegranateKids™, an imprint of Pomegranate Communications, in collaboration with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Originally published in 1991, this popular best-seller has been out of print for many years. With bold graphics, charming, rhyming text, and solid educational content, it explains the hieroglyphic code while imparting important facts about ancient Egypt. As an added bonus, a separate sheet of stencils is provided, slipped inside the back cover, so that kids can easily draw their own hieroglyphs. All told, this is the perfect book for any small visitor to a museum with Egyptian artifacts, or for any child who simply loves words and pictures.

You will learn about the lives of Pharaohs, the talents of the scribes, ancient Egyptian burial rites, and the world-famous pyramids.
