Product Description

Product Description

You've probably heard of Cleopatra. She's dead famous for: having a fling with Julius Caesar _and_ Mark Antony; getting carried aay with her eyeliner, and having a nasty accident with an asp. But did you know that Cleo married _both_ her brothers, was dead brainy and spoke nine languages, and had her little sister killed? Yes - even though she's dead, Cleo's still full of surprises!

4.0 out of 5 stars A good 'follow-on' from the `Famous Lives/Famous People' series, for an older child., 27 Nov 2006
By ABCeDar - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
From the popular DEAD FAMOUS series of books `Cleopatra and her Asp`.

`Cleopatra was the last Queen of Egypt. She died over two thousand years ago, but she'll always be dead famous! From Roman times everybody has had something to say about her..... Cleopatra was nothing special to look at - she was a bit short and fat - but she was dead clever....spoke nine languages, wrote books and made her country very rich. But most of all she managed to survive her own family - they were dead famous for the way they murdered each other! .............'

192 pages dedicated to the life of the last Egyptian Queen.
Split into chapters:-

Introduction
Meet the ancestors
Meet the family
Bad harvets and big neighbours
Queen Cleo
Caesar and Cleopatra
Cleo and Rome
Home alone
Antony and Cleopatra
Antony goes to war
Antony and Cleo versus Rome
After Cleopatra

Written in a variety of fonts with humorous black and white cartoon illustrations throughout, this is a good `follow-on' from the `Famous Lives/Famous People' series, for an older child.
