Smile Summary

Smile by Raina Telgemeier

Raina just wanted to be a normal girl, but one night after Girl Scouts she trips and falls severely injuring her two front teeth.

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.
