This special boxed set contains Telgemeier's #1 "New
York Times"-bestselling and Eisner award-winning graphic memoir Smile
and its companion, Sisters.
In Smile, Raina wants to be a normal
12-year-old.
But when she trips and falls, severely injuring her two
front teeth, she begins a long, frustrating journey with
braces,
surgery,
hideous headgear
and even a retainer with fake teeth attached.
And on top of all that,
there's a major earthquake, boy confusion and friends
who turn out to be not so friendly.
In Sisters, Raina
can't wait to be a big sister, but once Amara is born she realizes
things won't be quite what she had expected...or hoped.
Despite Amara's cuteness, she is 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 their parents'
relationship starts to struggle, they realize they must figure
out how to get along.
They are sisters, after all.
Full-colour graphic novels, based on Raina's own expriences growing
up.
Raina is also the illustrator of The Baby-Sitters
