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.

This book is about Raina Telegemier teeth falling out while running down the streets. She had a surgery for her gums, earthquake, and boy problem. She is very shock that she even got head gear and two fake teeth attach to a retainer! And her best friend are being mean to her! Bout at the end everything turns out right! I world recommend to people like comic books, people life, and funny things!

I love books like these because I get to see what other people deal with in their lives. Fiction or nonfiction... I DON'T CARE!! :-)

read this book.

This book is awesome and I would give this book to 4th grader because it shows at the end that lots of things go on at the beginning of the story but at the end you end up with your friends having a good time. I love to read this book.
