Raina Telgemeier
4.4/5 ( ratings)
The companion to Raina Telgemeier's #1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling and Eisner Award-winning graphic memoir, 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.

* "A wonderfully charming tale of family and sisters that anyone can bond with.” --Kirkus, starred reviw

* "Telgemeier’s art complements her writing to great effect, offering a cheerful, vivid cartoon simplicity that allows readers to
instantly engage even as it leaves room for deeper truths to take hold." -Booklist, starred review

*"Though the artwork draws little attention to itself, Telgemeier’s visual storytelling skills are well-honed, and readers will be left wishing for more"- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, starred review

*"Fans of the graphic novelist’s work will be sure to delight in this return to the Telgemeier’s family drama."- School LIbrary Journal, starred review
