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.

I love this book. I also read the other book "Sisters". It's REALLY funny.
I love this book! It makes me realize how lucky I am that I only have to keep my braces on for 2 years instead of 5!
I love sisters but I haven't read this one yet

Love it

love it so funny
good book
my like to
This book is a really good book. I like that the author shared what happened when she was younger, and I can imagine how hard it must have been for her. Raina Telgemeier has written some other good books, but this one is my very favorite because I didn't know such sad and scary things could happen before I even read this book. I feel really sorry for Raina.
yeah I like it but I haven't read it though
