The King Herself
1500 Years Before Christ: Hatshepsut, King of Upper and Lower Egypt - a woman - rules over the greatest civilisation in the world. But not everyone is happy about it. 35 Centuries Later: Danny, an unusually gifted 12 year-old, becomes obsessed with ancient Egypt and the king herself. His teacher, the beguiling Professor Celluka, takes Danny and his friend Katy on a journey out of mind, and out of time. ...AND THE FUTURE'S HISTORY |
