L1100 The Queen in King’s Clothing Bundle

In 2007, scientists used DNA to identify a mummy in Egypt estimated to be 3,500 years old and apparently that of a powerful Egyptian pharoah known as the “queen in king’s clothing” – the first great woman in history – Queen Hatshepsut. In a series of nonfiction articles, readers will learn about the early life of Queen Hatshepsut, life of a pharoah, her life as ruler, her successor, and the discovery of Queen Hatshepsut’s mummy remains. Readers will also enjoy a fictionalized memoir taken from the journal of Senemut found in the burial changer of Hatshepsut.
