Three laugh-out-loud graphic novels from the New York Times
Bestselling author Raina Telgemeier Smile Raina just wanted to be a
normal girl, 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 not be so
friendly. Sisters Raina can't wait to be a big sister. But once
Amara is born, things aren't quite how she expected them to be.
Amara is cute, but she's also a cranky, grouchy baby, and mostly
prefers to play by herself. Their relationship doesn't improve much
over the years, but when a baby brother enters the picture and
later, something doesn't seem right between their parents, they
realize they must figure out how to get along. They are sisters,
after all.Raina uses her signature humor and charm in both
present-day narrative and perfectly placed flashbacks to tell the
story of her relationship with her sister, which unfolds during the
course of a road trip from their home in San Francisco to a family
reunion in Colorado. Guts Raina wakes up one night with a terrible
upset stomach. Her mom has one, too, so it's probably just a bug.
Raina eventually returns to school, where she's dealing with the
usual highs and lows: friends, not-friends, and classmates who
think the school year is just one long gross-out session. It soon
becomes clear that Raina's tummy trouble isn't going away... and it
coincides with her worries about food, school, and changing
friendships. What's going on? Raina Telgemeier brings us three
thoughtful, charming, and funny true stories about growing up and
gathering the courage to face, and conquer, her fears. Full colour
illustrations bring the stories to life
