A review by meaganmart
Cleopatra VII: Daughter of the Nile, Egypt, 57 B.C. by Kristiana Gregory

3.0

I loved these books as a child and I've been going through my bookshelves deciding what to keep and what I'm ready to donate. I will keep this novel for my nieces or for any future kids I might have. I was interested in how they represented the different cultures who called Alexandria (and all of Egypt) home, I was also glad they emphasized Cleopatra's Macedonian heritage and the fact that her family were not native Egyptians. This isn't a groundbreaking novel by any means, but it is interesting and would be a good stepping stone read for a child interested in ancient Egypt.
