Bookroo's summary

Dive into ancient Egypt's enchanting tales, where gods like Amen-Ra shape the world, Isis searches for Osiris, and the Bennu Bird guards secrets. Discover magic, treasure, and the origins of Cinderella.

From the publisher

These stories include the great myths - of Amen-Ra, who created all the creatures in the world; of Isis, seaching the waters for her dead husband Osiris; of the Bennu Bird and the Book of Thoth. But there are also tales told for pleasure about magic, treasure and adventure - even the first ever Cinderella story.
