| Book Description | A book that talks about love and respect for animals in ancient Egypt The ancient Egyptians loved animals and respected all types of animals that shared their wonderful world. They realized that animals were a blessing to them and provided great services. For this reason, they revered animals and treated them well. Animals provided many good things for the ancient Egyptians, such as milk and meat for food, skins for clothing, and wool for protection from the cold. This unique relationship between the ancient Egyptians and animals made the Egyptians consider animals sacred and integrate them into their teachings about love and respect. For this reason, love and respect for animals were important factors that brought prosperity to animals. This wonderful work, illustrated by the creative Egyptian artist Mohsen Abd El-Hafiz, deserves to explore the realms of ancient Egyptians and their relationship with animals. I am delighted to present this wonderful work created by artist Ayman Samir, which he compiled for both children and adults to offer them a unique opportunity to discover the amazing world of animals in ancient Egypt.
