| Description: |
Bringing to life the story of a woman who declared herself Pharaoh, this book tells of Hatshepsut, who lived in ancient Egypt. It answers such questions as How did she make Egypt so rich? And how did she come to be buried, like Tutankhamun, in the Valley of the Kings? It also has sections on the clothes Hatshepsut wore, and the foods she ate. |
| Synopsis: |
When explorers first chipped a hole through a wall and shined a light into Tutankhamun's tomb, everything it touched glinted with gold and gleamed with silver. The boy-king so surrounded by this treasure would become one of the most famous names in history. But it was a less-famous princess who had accumulated a lot of the wealth that was buried in that tomb. Her name was Hatshepsut. How did she make Egypt so rich? And how did she come to be buried, like Tutankhamun, in the Valley of the Kings? This book brings to life the story of a real and remarkable princess who had the nerve to declare herself Pharaoh. |
