Raina Telgemeier’s #1 New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award-winning companion to Smile!

Raina can't wait to be a big sister. But once Amara is born, things aren't quite how she expected them to be. Amara is cute, but she's also a cranky, grouchy baby, and mostly prefers to play by herself. Their relationship doesn't improve much over the years, but when a baby brother enters the picture and later, something doesn't seem right between their parents, they realize they must figure out how to get along. They are sisters, after all.

Raina uses her signature humor and charm in both present-day narrative and perfectly placed flashbacks to tell the story of her relationship with her sister, which unfolds during the course of a road trip from their home in San Francisco to a family reunion in Colorado.

love the actoin and drama and i would reccomend this book to anyone that has siblings or just a free reader

Raina and Amara are going on a road trip. They don't get along very well-but they're going to have to try to. There's something going on with their parents, the incident, and flashbacks. Raina Telgemeier does an amazing job telling her story in this true graphic novel. Happy reading!

thank you for the good information i defently wanna read this book thanks to you

You are retelling the story to get up in 1st place and now you dont even know how to even review a simple book who even are you and your also teaching others to do it too!

That's very mean and uncalled for. She wanted to do that and she probably summed it up to tell others about it. People can do want they want don't try to bring them down.

One of my favorite books. I wonder what Amara's side of the story is. We knew that she hated that Raina would tune out the world, but maybe she acted like.. like.. like AMARA, for attention because she was the middle child.

This is just an awesome book! I thought it was cool how she included a bunch of flash backs from when before Amara was born and everything leading up to when the story happened. All I can say is WOW!! This is one of my favorite books!

Amara wants Raina's hidden colored pencils, she has to suffer a trip in the car with a snake Amara lost, and they never get along. Will this story have a happy ending? read to find out!
