Opinion:
HATSHEPSUT OF EGYPTHatshepsut of Egypt is a very good book that I would recommend to GIRLS from the ages of 9-13. The illustrations are well done, and help readers to picture Hatshepsut's times. I thought it was good to learn how she ruled and increased Egypt's treasury. One of the reasons I liked this book is because it shows that women are fit to be rulers. Hatshepsut made plenty of money for Egypt and made peace with others instead of fighting them. It was fun to read HATSHEPSUT OF EGYPT. It is perfect sized at about 20 pages.
