I love this book! It tells a story about the author herself, Raina, and her "Dental Drama". She falls by getting pushed and looses her two front permanent teeth. She has a long struggles at the orthodontist, but not only that. An earthquake struck her town! Read about her life and how it ends. (Look at her picture in the back, her teeth are finally perfect!)

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 was not that good to me.its just a comic book with some writing , i like real books with real writing , not comic books with almost no writing. NO OFFENSE!!
i like books with a lot a writing too because i read fast but i like this book too :D
This book tells that if you want to do something you should try, and not care what other people think!:)
I thought this book was fantastic! I just wish it were longer. It would be good as a novel too.
