Kenzie’s Kingdom TP – Vault Comics releases a graphic novel that redefines what it means to be a princess. Kenzie hates that her family moved to a castle to start a Medieval-themed resort. Having extreme social anxiety, all she wants to do is to blend into the background and not be seen. All that changes when a time traveling squire appears, and needs Kenzi’s help to get back to his home to the past. This coming of age story is about a teenage girl who steps into her own power to save the day – and to clam her own definition of queendom. Fans of Phoebe and her Unicorn, The Baby-Sitter’s Club and Witches of Brooklyn will enjoy this title.
