The Time-Traveling Fashionista and Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile

249 pp. | Little/Poppy | December, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-316-22488-8 $18.00
(4) YA Illustrated by Sandra Suy. Vintage-clothing-lover Louise's third time-traveling adventure takes her to the Old Hollywood set of Cleopatra; then, inadvertently, to ancient (and dangerous) Egypt, where the real Cleopatra is her boss. There, Louise sees some spectacular sights and fashions, as demonstrated in Suy's full-page color illustrations. The plot is formulaic and the writing lackluster, but fans will enjoy learning about these two stylish periods. Reading list.
