My hieroglyphic journal: a notebook for learning how to write and read Egyptian hieroglyphs (Ancient Egypt Journals)

Fascinating! Made me happy I flunked "writing" in the 3rd grade. Am certain Mrs Gunkel had no idea I was destined for some other more profound system of communication.

It's a good looking journal.

I bought this for my 13 year old daughter who was interested in Egypt. She loved it! It came on time, well packaged.

This is like a blank workbook. The pages have rows of squares like graph paper along with blank lines for a child to practice drawing hieroglyphics, the graph lines may help keeping size in proportion, and gives space for notes and practice. There is no diagram or chart for translation in the book, but there is a link to small but nice web page where a child can learn how to write their name in glyphics.This book will not teach you to learn to read/speak ancient Egyptian, all it does it teach you a few of the symbols they used that represent similar sounds like we use today for our alphabet in English, and how to crudely sound them out, like a 3 year old learning to speak words like MOM or DAD.As a basic learning aid it's okay but I think plain paper and practice would suffice. And let's be honest, there is a huge volume of incorrect and contradictory information online on how to pronounce basic hieroglyphics. With this book and resources online you will NOT learn how to read hieroglyphics in general.

This book does not teach hieroglyphics, it's simply a journal decorated with some hieroglyphic elements. If you're learning hieroglyphs in another book, this could be nice, but consider it decorative, not informative. The pages are a mix of graph and line paper.

Well done but lacks advanced hieroglyphics

NICE WAY TO GROUP AND ORGANIZE YOUR TEXT! HIGHLY RECCOMENDED !!

Can't wait to use this in Egypt. 🐦
