Cleopatra by Adele Geras is a very interesting book! It’s written in diary style by a young girl called Nefret who went to work for Queen Cleopatra when she was 10 years old. Nefret’s diary tells of the events that happened between the years we call 41-40BCE. It’s quite gripping and I’ve learnt heaps!
History is very fascinating! Have a read and let me know what you think. Imagine being a handmaiden in a palace for a queen. Have you heard of Queen Cleopatra before? Do you already know anything about her?
You are a very smart person!
