There are many amazing stories about the gods but I'm just going to tell you about my favourite. Long ago Seth killed his brother so his cousin, Horus, set him a challenge of racing in stone boats. Seth made a fine but heavy boat which sank immediately. Horus was a bit more clever he made a boat out of wood and made it look like stone. He won and Seth was sentenced to the skies were he became God of thunderstorms.

I hope you enjoyed my slide show
