Raina just wants to be a normal sixth grader. But one night after Girl Scouts she trips and falls, severely injuring her two front teeth. What follows is a long and frustrating journey with on-again, off-again braces, surgery, embarrassing headgear, and even a retainer with fake teeth attached. And on top of all that, there's still more to deal with: a major earthquake, boy confusion, and friends who turn out to be not so friendly.

Smile is a graphic memoir by New York Times bestselling author Raina Telgemeier. In this coming-of-age book, a sixth-grader named Raina undergoes crazy dental surgery after severely knocking out her two front teeth in a fall. Raina has to wear braces and do crazy dental surgery. She also copes with crushes, mean friends, family, and daily life. This is a great book and I totally reccomend it to fans of comics. For those of you who enjoyed Smile, I reccomend the follow-ups, Sisters and Guts, as well al the Baby-Sitters Club series. Happy reading! :D
