We admire the ancient wonders today, but somebody had to build them. No heavy machinery, no semitrucks, no cement mixers. How was it even possible to build such wonders as pyramids and temples in ancient times? 

Each one of the seven wonders of the world is unique, their beauty and magnificence has been lauded by the greatest poets and writers of the ages. In How the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World Were Built, you’ll learn about the techniques and tools used to build them, what it was like to be there during the construction of them, and more!

We’ll touch on each of the seven wonders of the world:

• The Colossus of Rhodes

• The Lighthouse of Alexandria (which withstood earthquakes and gales)
• The spellbinding Statue of Zeus at Olympia
• The breathtaking Temple of Artemis in Ephesus
• The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
• And the Hanging Gardens of Babylon (inspiration for so many myths and legends).

In Ancient Egypt for Kids, the famous ancient civilization along the Nile River is depicted in a novelty format like never before.

Over 5‚000 years ago, a civilization developed along the Nile River whose sights and remnants are still enchanting people from all over the world. Huge, wonderful pyramids, stone temples, decorated tombs, larger-than-life statues of rulers, tall columns, obelisks, and other memorials can be seen in Egypt wherever you look.

Still, many sights are waiting to be freed from the African sands and it remains somewhat mysterious how Egyptian builders could create such towering, beautiful buildings, considering the limited technology of the day. Let’s take a journey together to see the most wonderful Egyptian sights and learn what life in Ancient Egypt looked like for pharaohs, officials, soldiers, and ordinary people.
