Pharaoh's Daughter by Julius Lester

Pharaoh's Daughter by Julius Lester

More than 3,000 years ago, a young girl in Egypt named Almah adored her baby brother named Mosis. She would do anything for their happiness--even shunning their birth parents. Mosis, however, won't be happy until he sees that justice has been served to his own people. This variation of the story of Moses offers readers some new twists.
