Cleopatra
FROM SARAH:
This picture book is an excellent overview of the life of Cleopatra, set in the rich world of Alexandria as the Roman Republic began to crumble. The illustrations are beautiful, but it is text-heavy and deals with more mature content , so I'd recommend it for readers 10 and up.
FROM THE PUBLISHER:
Queen of Egypt at the age of eighteen, Cleopatra's passion was to untie the world under Egyptian rule. Legendary leaders risked their kingdoms to win her heart, and her epic life has inspired countless tales throughout history. A timeless story of love, war, and ambition, this pictorial biography from acclaimed author/illustrator Diane Stanley is sure to entertain and educate.
