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.

It is ok not the best story i have ever red but it is cool
(I've already read it) This book was so amazing and sorta easy to relate to, it shows how you can be confident in life during school and how you look, to not care about what any one says, i have to say that i love this book a lot! I rate this 5 stars!
I think that this is a really incredible book, a lovely, kind of quirky story which the author went through. If you are going through some sort of dental issues (braces, tooth removal) this really helps you calm down and realise that it could be a LOT worse.
its mostly for girls
it is really good book tust me
Is it any good?
