Raina Telgemeier

Three laugh-out-loud graphic novels from

the New York Times Bestselling author Raina Telgemeier

Smile

Raina just wanted to be a normal girl, 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 not be so friendly.

Sisters

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.

Guts

Raina wakes up one night with a terrible upset stomach. Her mom has

one, too, so it’s probably just a bug. Raina eventually returns

to school, where she’s dealing with the usual highs and lows: friends,

not-friends, and classmates who think the school year is

just one long gross-out session. It soon becomes clear that Raina’s

tummy trouble isn’t going away… and it coincides with her worries

about food, school, and changing friendships. What’s going

on?

Raina Telgemeier brings us three thoughtful, charming, and funny

true stories about growing up and gathering the courage to face,

and conquer, her fears.

Full colour illustrations bring the stories to life
