I have been getting my books for my art lessons for my students from the public library and the school library. I started running into books that couldn't be located or books that were out of print. So I have started to buy my books in order to have them when I want them. The Egyptian Cinderella book and any of the other ones like this are a great source to have at hand. This books is colorful and gives the students a view of how an artist sees the characters in the book. I do Egyptian profiles with my second graders every year (they look forward to being able to do this project as second graders)and this book has great examples of different styles of headdress, hairstyles, patterns in the egyptian collars and colors. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in the Egyptian culture.
