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.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 5 Up-Sixth-grader Raina falls and severely damages her two front teeth. Through middle school and into high school, she struggles with peer relationships, discovering her own strengths while enduring painful orthodontia. The concluding pages reveal a self-assured high school student who can indeed smile. Full-color comic panels perfectly capture young adolescence.α(c) Copyright 2013.

Review

"...The equivalent of a Judy Blume novel: younger readers can turn to it for understanding and comfort. [Smile] hits home partly because there is nothing else out there like it."
---New York Times Book Review

"Irresistible, funny and touching - a must read for all teenage girls, whether en-braced or not."
--Kirkus Reviews

"Charming... This book should appeal to tweens looking for a story that reflects their fears and experiences and gives them hope that things get easier." --Publishers Weekly

"Telgemeier's storytelling and full-color cartoony images form a story that will cheer and inspire any middle-schooler dealing with orthodontia." --Booklist

"Teens struggling with issues of appearance and identity-especially if they wear braces-may take comfort in the thought that one day they'll learn, as Raina does, to feel good about themselves, inside and out." --Christian Science Monitor

My nine-year-old was over the moon when she came home from school and found this and "Gut" on the side table in the living room. I'd forgotten to hide them for her birthday...so that was that.

She had already read both, to my surprise, but started re-reading SMILE immediately and has re-read it twice. It's a great book that hardly needs an endorsement at this point.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and funny! Absolutely loved it!

Braces, yikes!
An accident causes her to lose her two front teeth. My teeth! All that blood on the ground! The scenes can be kind of gross, but you feel for her—her pain, her humiliation.
As she’s recuperating, she gets a card that says “Smile!” Well, that was just the rock on her sundae. And the last thing you want your dentist to say is “uh-oh.” What “uh-oh!”
Story illustrates the whole dental process like molds, x-rays, ortho visits, to not being able to eat popcorn, to being dubbed “vampire girl.” This becomes a wonderful tale of growing pains.
This story was both fun and funny! Absolutely loved it! Goes to show that sometimes you just gotta laugh at yourself and smile!

4.0 out of 5 stars This was a great fun and easy book for kids age 9+
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2022
Verified Purchase
This book is about a girl that is in middle school that breaks her teeth and has multiple problems with her teeth. What I liked about the book was the story and how it developed over the years. and how at the end it comes to a good ending. What I also liked was that the book was simple and easy to read and I think it was age appropriate. I have one issue with the book and that was how much blood it shows that part makes the book a little scary. I thought the character was kind and had perseverance for when she broke her teeth and had to go to the dentist a lot but she pushed through and eventually got her teeth fixed. I can relate to the character in a way that I broke my teeth once and I had to get them fixed.

Raina Telemenger is the best author I know. She writes the Baby Sisters Club and these funny books about this teenage girl and her life. All the books are very good and I have all her books. I read them and take AR tests on them. They are 12 points each which is amazing. I recommend buying these books. Especially for your children. Sincerely

Unknown writer cause I am not sharing pearsonal info ❤️
