SynopsisRaina just wants to be a normal sixth grader. But one night after Girl Scouts she trips and falls, severely injuring her two front teeth, and 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 coming-of-age true story is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever been in middle school, and especially those who have ever had a bit of their own dental drama., Raina Telgemeier's #1 New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award-winning graphic memoir based on her childhood!

  • Buenísimo

    Pienso que el cuento es muy corto y que pudo haber brindado mas sucesos durante el procedimiento y desarollo. Pero es bueno para estudiantes de secundaria, es entretenido e interesante. I think the story is very short and that it could have provided more events during the procedure and development. But it's good for high school students, it's entertaining and interesting.
