this book inspires kids that think they don't fit in to believe that they can fit in. No matter if you have braces,glasses,head gear, or anything else, don't be afraid to show who you are inside. From falling down to braces to head gear, Raina trusted her dentist and she was able to make her teeth look great again. This should relate to kids who are scared and think they are nerds, to encourage themselves and talk to a grown up in case if they get bullied. This book is a very encouraging and i hope you like it!!!

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.
