This week, Lauren guides us as we travel back to ancient Egypt and learn about Hapshepsut, the Queen who would become Queen.
What happens when your dad is Pharoah, but then he has no legitimate sons, and you get passed over? Do you have to marry to keep power? What's a girl to do with all that power? Will anyone remember her? We answer all of these questions, and more!
