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.

It sounds really good.

Done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This story is about a girl named Raina, who has a little sister called Amara. At first, she was really excited to get a new baby sister, but after a few years, Raina finds out that having a little sister isn't always fun. Raina expected younger sisters to always listen to what Raina says, and she wanted to spend a lot of time with Amara. However, Amara prefers to play by herself, not with Raina. Raina runs into lots of problems with Amara. For example, Raina was just trying to play with Amara, but Amara gets mad and starts crying. I could really relate to the stories and characters in this book, because I have a sister too, and it's not always easy to get well along with them. This story is a really good book and it shows how you can keep a good relationship with your family, and also teaches you the good and bad of having siblings.
