Manuela Razzi.
To help with her report on Napoleon, Nina's fairy Sybil magically transports her into her history book. While away, the troublemaking fairy of Nina's nemesis casts a spell on the book forcing Nina and Sybil to continuously travel through time, encountering monsters at every turn. The story can be difficult to follow, but the graphic novel's action-packed art helps resolve some confusion.
