Raina Telgemeier's #1 New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award-winning graphic memoir based on her childhood!
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.

This is one of the greatest graphic novels. I have not read guts and sisters but i'm going to soon. I love that in the end she finally breaks up with her toxic friends and finds new kind friends. It also tells a teen life, that obviously includes boys, drama, emotional stuff, and braces. If you don't like blood and like teeth stuff I would tell you not to read it, it has some blood and well yeah blood. So in conclusion I would say that this book is super good and that you should read it if you have not.
I love this book. If you already read this book read sisters and guts.
I read this soooo many times. ONE OF THE BEST GRAPHIC NOVELs
I loveee this book so much!!! The art shows so many emotions and the story is great!!!
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. Also, in fact, the writer based the book on herself. The book is a true story of the author of girl scouts and her two front teeth falling out. Telgemeier told the whole process to make her teeth perfect again. In the book, the author includes all the details of her life during the time she had braces. I really recommend this book and other books from this author!
