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.

This is a cute and funny book! Raina, Amera, their mother, and their little brother are going on a trip to visit their family but the two sisters can't even go a few minutes with out fighting and driving their mother crazy, how are they going to make it to Colorado?

This is the best book ever because it talks about the life of Raina Telgmeier in a comic book version.It is very hard to make a comic book to talk about her life.It is mainly about Raina with her sister in the car on a road trip for three weeks.

This is like the best book ever that was on the planet Earth.

This book is about Raina and her brother and sister. They go on a road trip in a van and they all don't really like each other. They sleep at some type of cabin/lodge and look at the stars. They kinda enjoy their time together but don't really like each other. They later learn to accept each other. I liked this book because I can kinda relate to it. I also have siblings. I also liked this book because I liked how they deal with each problem. I highly recommend this book!

Two sisters. One car. One roadtrip. What could go wrong? Well, a lot could go wrong. When Raina's family decides to take a trip to go see their relatives, Raina is piled into the van with her siblings. As drama after drama happen, Raina is forced to either burst with annoyance over her sister, Amara or find a way that they can work together to find their way on the road from and to home. This was a very interesting and funny graphic novel that I really enjoyed reading!

Awesome book! A beautiful story about the sisters Raina and Amara. Raina needs to be a sister. She likes to be a sister very much. When Amara is born, she realizes that it's kind of hard to be a sister. Love this story very much!

This book reminded me of me and my brother's relationship. I loved this book, and it is one of my favorite Raina telgemeier books, too.

This book is really good! The pictures are nice and colorful! It is a funny and cool book siblings and family! It was a crazy and an awesome adventure reading this book!
