In "The Life and Medieval Times of Kit Sweetly" by Jamie Pacton, Kit Sweetly is a witty and determined teenager who works at a Renaissance fair. She dreams of becoming a knight, but her ambitions feel stifled by societal expectations and familial pressures. When a chance arises for her to take on a knight's role, she leaps at the opportunity, navigating the challenges of gender stereotypes and proving her capabilities. As Kit battles against the conventions of her medieval-themed life, she discovers her own strength and the importance of pursuing one's dreams, regardless of the obstacles that may arise.
