Graphic Novel Spotlight: Rapunzel's Revenge


Rapunzel's Revenge by Shannon and Dean Hale

Take your average fairy tale, turn it on it's ear, empower the girls, and set it in the old west. That's the joy that is Rapunzel's Revenge. The characters make mistakes, sometimes things they can't fix, and face the consequences of their actions. Rapunzel is a tough girl who makes her own way in the world and, most importantly, chooses. This book is all about choice. There is also a second book called Calamity Jack. Great for the 10-15 year old set but also has some appeal for older readers.
