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 an awesome book ever!!!

This book is like my brother and I!

This is an awesome book!!! Ever wonder how to deal with your sister? well this book show you can, and that a sibling relationship will always have its bumpy roads. This book is good for boys and girls and any ages. There is no bad language or any inappropriate pictures. I personally love this book and will always read it.

I am in 3rd grade and it is easy to read the grade levle sould be 3-12 because a kindergarten can read that and the real book by there selfs easy peasy.

This book was funny and light-hearted. It's a great book to read on a vacation. Some things I questioned though.... Like why weren't Raina and Amara close? Even if they annoyed each other... they are still sisters... but anyway... I still give it five stars....

It's a good book! It definitely has some wit and humor. The flashbacks and foreshadowing are really effective and well placed. I would recommend this book to kids at ages 9+.

This book is one of Raina's heavy-packed trips to visit her aunt and cousins. She goes through some snake fears, and much more. I recommend this book to you.

I love this book, I’ve read it at least 100,000 times! This book is about Raina herself, and Amara her sister. They just can’t stop butting heads, and to make matters worse they have to go on a road trip together all the way to Colorado!

This is the second biography by Raina Telgemeier.(After Smile) I have had this book from my library for the past two weeks and I have enjoyed all 8 times! Raina and Amara don't get along. So two weeks in a row in a van is crazy!

This book narrates a story of two sisters surviving on a road trip. They go through hot and dry times in their van with no air conditioners, a snake in the van scenero and the sisters waiting in the van as their mother hitchikes a ride. This story is a crazy adventure!
