3.0 out of 5 stars Not as fun as it seems Mar 10 2002
By Shalizeh
Format:Hardcover
When I first heard of this title I thought it had the complete "How To" write or read hieroglyphs, but they were only stamps. There is a small book included but not what I expected.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun With Hieroglyphys Jan 11 2000
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
As a homeschooler we really enjoyed the "hands on" approach that this book with ink and stamps gave us. It was great fun and it helped us to understand the first written language a whole lot more.
