Cleopatra VII: Daughter of the Nile

222 pp. | Scholastic | September, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-590-81975-5 $$10.95
(4) 4-6 Royal Diaries series. Despite occasionally breathless prose, this is nonetheless an engaging fictionalized account of twelve-year-old Cleopatra, as she awaits not only her fate but that of Egypt as well. Readers will need patience to keep track of names and events, but the book provides a clear picture of life in ancient Egypt and Rome. A historical note, reproductions, and maps are appended.
