Cleo lives in the Pharaoh's Palace, among amulets and silk cushions, in the tenth year of the Glorious Kingdom of Egypt. But a magical ritual gone awry suddenly catapults her far from the Nile, straight into a twenty-first-century apartment. Together with Mau, a ginger cat with a bizarre sense of humor, Cleo must find her way home. And what better place to open a portal through time than the Egyptian Museum? Alessandra Gumiero (Cleo, the Egyptian Cat, Feltrinelli) tells us a sparkling adventure in which the boundary between past and present opens like an unexpected door, and crossing it means discovering two worlds at once.
