What is Isis and the seven scorpions about?
Isis and her young son, Horus, flee from Set’s palace with the help of seven powerful scorpions created by the god Thoth. When they reach a village, Isis asks a wealthy woman for shelter, but she is turned away. Angry at the woman’s selfishness, the scorpions plan revenge. As danger grows, Isis must protect Horus and teach the villagers an important lesson about kindness, fairness and helping those in need. This exciting retelling brings an ancient Egyptian myth to life.
