This was used for a class project for my daughter. She struggles with reading sometimes, and I was hoping this book would be easier than the original that we bought. She's 9 and this book was for 7-9. We still had to read most of it to her... but I don't want to harp on that because ancient Egypt isn't the easiest topic and I understand that they did the best they could.Additionally, the book ends with a reference to her suicide. They are careful to point out that suicide was viewed as honorable back then, but they don't say that today it is not viewed the same way (and shouldn't be). It opened up a healthy conversation with my daughter, and that's OK, but I want other parents to know and be prepared.
I purchased this ffor my daughter's class project. I was looking for something that was light enough for her to carry and with just enough information on the subject. We have a much higher quality reference book on Egyptian history and culture in our home library, so this was just a short term solution. It served its purpose. Not the best quality paper or print, but if you need something for a few days for the school project, this is ideal.
She had five kids? Really? I never knew that! Very interesting book for young minds who want to know more about Egypt or the mystery of Cleopatra!
I think it is fascinating because of all that she did in her life.I would recommend this book to a person who like romantic true stories
It was an excellent overview of Cleopatra's life for a young student. Simple to read, informative, and covered the highlights of her life. This should be a first read for students beginning to study Egypt.
This was exactly what we were looking for would highly recomend

For a 3rd grader reading project. Book explains & summs up pretty much everything about Cleopatra
