The Secret Weapon / ????????? ?????: The Legend of Cam (Paperback or Softback)

The year is 525 BC. Insulted by Pharaoh, the Persian King marches to the Battle of Pelusium. There, he will unleash a weapon never before used in war. Can the terrified Egyptians save the day? Can you guess the secret weapon before it's too late? Or will the dynasty fall?

Based upon actual historical events, this is the story of how and why psychological warfare first began. Yet the final reveal of the secret weapon is sure to raise a laugh and a smile on your children's faces.

To increase this book's educational value, the text is in both English and Coptic (the indigenous language of Egypt). With illustrations presented primarily in an Egyptian style of line art, it doubles as a colouring book.

Hi, I'm Jessy. I publish books in languages I don't speak so children can read books in languages they do speak. Legends have always fascinated me. Do they give your children a sense of wonder too? As an Australian poet, it's hard to find work in the Outback. But there are children all over the world struggling to learn how to read. Some of them have hardly any books in their native language. That's why I created the Bilingual Legends series - to give as many children as possible the opportunity to read a story in their own native language.Usually, each book in the series is published in the language spoken in the land where that story originates. A typical book also includes the text in English, but in some cases Spanish, Portuguese, German, or another language is used instead. I hope you enjoy reading my books!
