Aladdin Paperbacks, 1997. 1st Paperback Edition 18th Printing. Soft cover. New/No Jacket Issued. Robert Sabuda color illustrations. CONDITION: NEW 1997 Aladdin Paperbacks/Picture Books large paperback, first PB edition, 18th printing. Simply stunning (and historically correct) color illustrations by the Author, Sabuda the Great. Also, Sabuda's Notes on the Text last page of book. CONTENT: Small and frail, Tutankhamen was an all but ignored member of the royal family of the great Egyptian pharaoh Amenhotep III. At the school of the menoi, or tutors, he did not excel at physical activities with the other royal princes. Keeping to himself, he observed and admired the work of his father's craftsmen, who built glorious temples to Egypt's many gods. Someday he too would find a gift for those gods. Then Amenhotep III died and the unpopular reign of Tutankhamen's brother ended in mystery. Who now would be pharaoh? Could it be a boy of only ten? Intermediate readers. Grades 3+.
