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. Review: Lovely book - My niece loved it and read it in a day! Review: Comic book starter pack perfected - Love it 🥰

Look after your teeth
Great story / biography. The trauma of reconstructive dental surgery is the subject of most peoples nightmares, coupled with the mystery of going through puberty and also having to deal with the taunts of your so-called school-friends is certainly character building. A great read for anyone aged between 12 and 17 or anyone really. I love Raina's art style the pacing of the book is perfect too.

It’s amazing it shows the life of a girl who thinks that she is ugly but then doesn’t (I know that makes no sense but read it first then you’ll understand)

Highly recommended
My daughter reviewed this for a school project and absolutely loved the book. She found it funny, interesting and it was a completely different style of book to all her schoolmates ones.

This is a really good book. I would totally recommend getting it. I would recommend this book to ages 11-13, I loved it. It is quite a quick read. I would just like to mention that this book is written in a comic book style. I don't think there is any problem with this I just wasn't expecting it. I like this book because it's new and original and very realistic. Definitely worth getting. Buy it! :-) 5 stars

Great graphic novel.
Bought for my daughter in year 4. These are aimed a little older but I checked the content and it was fine for her. She loves this book and has read and re-read it several times. She finds Raina easy to relate too.
