From Raina Telgemeier, Eisner award-winning author of
Ghosts, Drama and Sisters!
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.
A great coming-of-age graphic novel
Perfect for fans of Ghosts, Drama
and Sisters
Beautifully illustrated in Raina Telgemeier's intimate and accessible
style
