This is a very good introduction to the life of Cleopatra – divided into the following headings:Cleopatra’s familyEarly conflictA young queenConflict with the GabinianiCompetition for the crownRelations with the Roman RepublicCleopatra in the Roman Civil WarCleopatra and Mark AntonyMurder on Sacred GroundQueen of KingsFall from graceThe Battle of ActiumDeath of CleopatraLegacyEach heading has various facts listed about it – almost like bullet points, but presented as paragraphs. There are illustrations and the information is presented in simplified terms, to be understood by the young audience. I would say this is no different from any other history book found in a school or local library – a collection of facts. However, this is also an appealing page at the end of the book with a web link, so you can watch videos about Cleopatra’s life on the IP Factly website. Obviously, this means you need to be using a Kindle Fire or similar tablet, but the link allows you to watch:Cleopatra Biography by CloudBiographyCleopatra Biography by escodaviAncient Egypt: Crash Course World HistoryMy eight year old daughter really enjoyed this and I think these books are good introductions to historical figures. This will not give you a lot of depth, but they are a good starting point and children might be tempted to read on if they are interested.
Pretty straight forward. I found it interesting to read and I even learned a couple of things. I have no idea she had children! My son enjoyed it as well. It could be better with the pictures and formatting, so I knocked off a star.
Well I the pictures are good but it is weird the way the words are I mean I really didn't know when the book started. But the pictures are really good :( :)
Great book for your kids. My daughter had a biography project and when she did her presentation the kids where so happy to learn the story. Thank you.
