Guts

Being sick all day is no laughing matter. Oh wait: it kind of is, now! Cartoon queen Raina Telgemaier tells a story of her real-life growing pains. You’ll wince in sympathy – and you’ll laugh out loud! One night, Raina wakes up with an upset tummy. Her mom has one, too, so it’s probably just a bug. And before long Raina is back at school, dealing with the usual highs and lows: friends, not-friends and annoying classmates. But her tummy trouble isn’t going away. The bathroom is starting to feel like Raina’s best buddy. And it seems to be linked to her worries about food, school and friendship. What’s going on?
