Customer Reviews

Qumran's Dead Sea Scrolls reawakened!

Very informative work, written simplistically -- perfect for this age bracket. (On page 22 the word "temporary" may be a word a younger child would not understand). Wish that there was a world map showing where THE MIDDLE EAST is located, as this IS a book for younger children. Otherwise this book has an excellent "handle" on one of the greatest archaeological discoveries and teaches the reader about the evolution of the scrolls. The photographs are excellent and I am happy to see that they are not illustrations, but the genuine "artifact"! See also: The Dead Sea Scrolls. by Ilene Cooper
