Over 3,000 years ago, a woman did something almost no one expected: she became pharaoh of Egypt.
Meet Hatshepsut, the princess who became queen, ruled for a young king, and then claimed the crown herself. Follow her true story, from the great voyage to the faraway land of Punt, to the stunning temple at Deir el-Bahari, to the towering obelisks she raised, and discover how her story was almost erased and then rediscovered thousands of years later.
Vividly illustrated on every page, this storybook brings one of ancient Egypt's most remarkable rulers to young readers, a story many classrooms never cover.

Why families love this book:
A true story of boldness, leadership, and peace
Vibrant, full-color illustrations on every page
Real African history, told with pride and accuracy
A "What We Can Learn" life-lessons page that turns story time into a real conversation
Bonus map, timeline, and glossary, great for homeschool or classroom use

Perfect for:
- Kids who love Egypt, pyramids, and ancient history
- Parents who want their children to see strong female leaders in history
- Homeschool history units
- Women's History Month and Black History Month reading lists
- Classroom read-alouds and gifts
