Andy Seed

    1 januari 1961

    Deze auteur schrijft over een indrukwekkend scala, van humor en leuke non-fictie voor kinderen tot memoires voor volwassenen, educatieve werken en grillige poëzie. Zijn werk wordt gekenmerkt door een gevoel van genot en onderzoekt vaak het dagelijks leven met humor en genegenheid. Een recente memoire die de beproevingen van een jonge leraar in de Yorkshire Dales beschrijft, werd omschreven als 'hartverwarmend, hilarisch...een betoverende memoire.' Het vermogen van de auteur om genres te doorkruisen met behoud van een duidelijke stem, maakt zijn schrijven uniek boeiend.

    • When ancient Egyptian friends, Nub and Iteti, overhear a gang of tomb robbers plotting to raid Queen Neith's tomb, they set off on a quest to stop them. But there are lots of clues and puzzles to solve along the way, from a suspicious list of hieroglyphic words found in the marketplace to a confusing maze across the River Nile. Will they get there in time to stop the robbers unleashing a terrible curse? And who was behind the evil plot all along? With breathtaking artwork, fascinating facts about ancient Egypt and a fold-out guide at the back of the book which explains how to read hieroglyphs and contains an easy-to-use hieroglyphic dictionary, this is the book for children who love history and hair-raising adventures. Featuring hieroglyphic messages, mazes, logic puzzles and more, children will enjoy immersing themselves in ancient Egypt and taking part in the story. A page of solutions is included at the end of the book.
