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 is so good! I got this book and read it three times in one day!
This book is funny and the story of the book is so realistic, And I recommend the age of 11-13+ Because I think Little kids would be "Scared" of the blood coming out of her teeth, But the book is not mine so I think younger kids would also enjoy this book! :)
Smile is a true story based on the author's life. Raina Telgemeier was very creative when she wrote this book. She took her past, one of her memories and put that into not just a regular book, but a graphic memoir ( funny, right now I'm learning about memoirs)! In this book there are moments that make you sad and other moments that make you laugh. The book tells you that even on a dark and rainy day in the end there is always a rainbow and sometimes you just can't help it but, well, Smile 😃! I hope that if you decide to read this book, you would enjoy every moment of this book just as I enjoyed every moment of this book! One last thing, even 1 smile can turn someone's frown upside down!
Honestly I love this book I had gotten it and now I read it every day🙃🙂🙃🙂
