***Note: this review assumes that you've read the book.*** Smile is a sweet middle-grade graphic novel chronicling the author/illustrator's ordeal with dental treatments and braces from 6th grade through her freshman year in high school--a tough time socially, even for those who aren't dentally ch...
This was a cute, quick read that I enjoyed. I read this fairly quickly so I am happy I picked this up from the library instead of buying it. Full review to come!

My tween knocked out his two front teeth at camp this summer and our friend loaned him this book. I wish I could gift this book to every child that goes through something like this. My son loved it so much I bought him his own copy. He had been struggling to articulate and process his feelings and e...
I feel like Smile might be a good book to give to a girl who's just found out that she's going to need braces and is feeling down about it. Very likely, she'll have it a lot easier than poor Raina did. This is the author's own story about what she went through with her teeth. It must be true, becaus...
