Cleopatra "Serpent of the Nile" cover

The richest, most powerful woman in the world, Cleopatra ruled the East and tamed the West. With both cunning and charm, she beguiled two of the most famous men in history, entwining Egypt's destiny with Rome's. Many believed she was as sly as a serpent. Or was she just smart? Gorgeous illustrations and an intelligent, evocative story bring to life a real dastardly dame who, despite her schemes, lost everything--including her beloved homeland.

"The series lends itself to easy browsing, but these titles serve will for reports, too, and are sure to interest readers who are looking for something a little different for their research." -- School Library Journal on the Real Princesses series
