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.
