Seeker of Knowledge!
This week we will read,Seeker of Knowledge: The Man Who Deciphered Egyptian Hieroglyphs
To a child, the future is a magnificent dream. For Jean-Francois Champollion, the dream was to sail up the Nile in Egypt and uncover the secrets of the past. In 1802, when Champollion was eleven years old, he vowed to be the first person to read Egypt's ancient hieroglyphs. He faced great challenges over the next twenty years as he searched for the elusive key to the mysterious writing -- and the fulfillment of his dreams.

After a week of rain the children had "fun" at the track! How do I know? Because they told me:-)
