Author Description

Release Your Inner Egyptian Scribe! Can you imagine yourself writing on a papyrus like an Ancient Egyptian scribe? In Ancient Egypt, the scribes were the learned, wise ones and were greatly respected. Each of these notebooks is filled with 80 pages that look like ancient papyrus! Now you, too, can write like an Egyptian scribe when you use these notebooks as a diary or travel journal, for class notes, or even to practice writing hieroglyphs yourself. The pages are unlined, but papyrus paper was created by laying out strips of papyrus, so those strip marks can be a guide for writing evenly. You can write with a normal ballpoint pen, felt-tip, or calligraphy pen - just like any normal paper. The spine of each volume is a different color for easy reference, and they create a pleasing variety of colors on your bookshelf. The cover of this 80-page 7"x10" notebook is glossy. There are also 120-page versions of the Egyptian Gods & Goddesses Notebooks that have covers in a matte finish. This volume: Horus is No. 4 in the Egyptian Gods & Goddesses Notebooks series. Ancient Egyptian kings identified with the god Horus. Each pharaoh was the "Golden Horus" or the "Living Horus." Heru (his Ancient Egyptian name) was the superhero - fighting for the right, ridding the world of evil, and avenging his father's death by battling the murderer (Set). Portrayals of Horus continue in the modern Coptic depictions of St. George slaying the dragon and in movies like Star Wars. Heru's animal is the falcon (a type of hawk). Do you have a heroic story to tell? The papyrus-like pages of this notebook will give your story a place in history. A perfect gift for anyone who loves Egypt, both adults and young people!
