The Ancient Maya (A True Book: Ancient Civilizations) (A True Book (Relaunch)) Review: artwork is from ancient artifacts - I ordered several books on the Maya & haven't had time to fully read this one, but have skimmed it. But based on another review, I did look at the pictures before I shared it with my kids. These are not illustrations: much of the artwork is photographs of ancient sculptures, wall paintings and masks. These are how the ancient Mayans depicted themselves, not how a modern artist has drawn them. There is one illustration that looks like it is modern, but it is describing ancient Mayan society & is very much in keeping with the style of the photographs of the original artifacts. Other than that one illustration, the photos that are not of artifacts are of modern Mayan people, housing, or ruins of Mayan sites. My skim of the text is that it seems very informative & I like that they give pronunciation of difficult words. It looks like a colorful, informative book that I look forward to reading with my kids. I think for the price & the attention span of the intended audience, it seems very good. Review: Great Resource - This resource was a significant part of my unit with the same content. I teach the gifted and talented students. I wanted to enrich my student's learning, and I could do that with the help of this workbook. Not to mention that it was easy to add an extension project to their learning. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,510,825 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #114 in Children's Latin American History (Books) #689 in Children's Ancient History | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (116) | | Dimensions | 7.5 x 0.25 x 8.75 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | Grade level | 2 - 5 | | ISBN-10 | 0531241106 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0531241103 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 48 pages | | Publication date | February 11, 2010 | | Publisher | Children's Press | | Reading age | 8 - 10 years | ## Images ![The Ancient Maya (A True Book: Ancient Civilizations) (A True Book (Relaunch)) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ix92KZMuL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ artwork is from ancient artifacts *by S***T on November 20, 2012* I ordered several books on the Maya & haven't had time to fully read this one, but have skimmed it.

This was perfect for our 8 year old. We read it to her at bedtime before our trip and it helped a lot. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1705684-the-ancient-maya-a-true-book-ancient-civilizations-a-true](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1705684-the-ancient-maya-a-true-book-ancient-civilizations-a-true) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
