Description
At just eleven years old, Jean-Francois Champollion made a promise to himself: he would be the first person to decipher Egypt's ancient hieroglyphs. Over the next twenty years, he dedicated his life to uncovering the secrets of the past.
This remarkable true story follows Champollion's journey as he sails up the Nile and unravels the mysteries of a language that had been lost for centuries. Stunning watercolors bring this adventure to life, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in history, archaeology, or the power of determination.
