Egyptian Art-Book Used in Harmony Fine Arts
Grade Five
Ancient Egyptian Art (Art in History/2nd Edition)
Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 12/21/2009)
This book is the basis for studying Ancient Egyptian art in Harmony Fine Arts. I recommend it because it not only has loads of information, it also has great illustrations and activities. I use this book in my fifth grade plan but it could easily be shared with children older or younger.
My New Favorite Egyptian Art Book
Ralph Masiello's Ancient Egypt Drawing Book (Ralph Masiello's Drawing Books)
Amazon Price: $13.22 (as of 12/21/2009)
This colorful, well-illustrated how to draw book is a must for young artists studying the Ancient Egyptian time period. It is much more than a drawing book and will inspire hours of art in your family.
