For her assignment, Kaci fashioned a superhero named KJA, Jr. out of multicolored construction paper. From there, she used colored pencils to add a little extra color flare.<\/p>\n<p>When Kaci received her Budsie in the mail, she was surprised that her project had come to life! \u201cIt was worth it,\u201d said her mother Stephanie. \u201cIt\u2019s so amazing how they captured the authenticity of her drawing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When she\u2019s not flying around with other superheroes, KJA Jr. lives in Kaci\u2019s bedroom, so she can be close to her creator.
