BR 2-09: Cleopatra (Daynes, 2004)

" From the palace balcony, Princess Cleopatra could see luch gardens reaching down to the sea and a jumble of rooftops stretching far along the coast." (Daynes, 2004, p.5)

This book is about a Cleopatra. Cleopatra is a queen of Egypt, famous for her beauty, who became the lover of Julius caesar and later of Mark antony.

She  is known as "a peerless beauty" and she is told that they were the attractive art of conversation which does not divert people, and beautiful voice like a little bird. She is famous as world 3 major beauties.
There are a lot of coloful pictures in this book. They are so beautiful.

This book is composed of the seven chapters and one history. I like the chapter 2 the best. This book has written Cleopatra's history. This chapter is the most interesting also in it. Cleopatra understands it immediately, when it reads this book that it was popular with the man since he was young. Cleopatra is known widely although it is very an old person even now in the world, and I thought that I was uncanny.
I enjoyed it. I want to read this book again.
