has seen tragedy and is still very much in danger. Its up to her to help, but
they sort of expected Cleopatra the great queen and ruler, not a pre-teen. So
she is sent to school, including algebra. She quickly excels are target

This
was a fun and fast paced graphic novel that middle school students would enjoy.
I think the character is relatable and the plotline was fun and interesting.
The artwork is shows an eye for character expression, layout, and variety.
