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 loved this book so so so so so much!!!!!! It is about a girl who knocks a tooth out, needs to get braces, and makes lots of new friends. I think the message in this story is ''be brave''. I hope you like it!!!!!!!

raina has a overbite and needs braces. one night after girl scouts her friends start racing to raina's house. raina trips and falls and knocks out her two front teeth its a long step by step process until her teeth are normal. it included headgear, crossbite, root canals, plus much more. many things happened before her teeth were fixed boy drama, mean friends who pansed her, an major earthquake, a new high school and new friends and the most interesting thing is it all happened to the author!!!!
