“When Raina was in fourth grade, she had a lot on her mind — school, trying not to vomit, and a million other things. Over time, Raina learned how to confront her fears and find ways to stay calm during overwhelming moments. Raina shares her anxieties and fears in this funny and poignant graphic memoir, which is sure to comfort any reader who may be going through the same thing.”

Description
A true story from Raina Telgemeier, the #1 New York Times bestselling, multiple Eisner Award-winning author of Smile, Sisters, Drama, and Ghosts!
¡La edición en español de Guts by Raina Telgemeier!
Una noche, Raina se despierta sintiéndose mal del estómago. Su mamá también se siente mal, así que puede tratarse de un virus. Pero una vez que Raina regresa a la escuela, después de ponerse bien, siente que cada vez que tiene que enfrentar un problema -ya sea si sus amigas le hablan o no, si los chicos de su clase hablan de temas asquerosos, si tiene que hacer un proyecto escolar o si se está alimentando bien o no- le vuelve a doler el estómago. ¿Qué le pasa?
Una vez más, Raina Telgemeier nos brinda una historia encantadora y divertida que nos hace pensar sobre el coraje que se necesita para conquistar nuestros miedos mientras crecemos.
Raina wakes up one night with a terrible upset stomach. Her mom has one, too, so it's probably just a bug. Raina eventually returns to school, where she's dealing with the usual highs and lows: friends, not-friends, and classmates who think the school year is just one long gross-out session. It soon becomes clear that Raina's tummy trouble isn't going away... and it coincides with her worries about food, school, and changing friendships. What's going on?
Raina Telgemeier once again brings us a thoughtful, charming, and funny true story about growing up and gathering the courage to face -- and conquer -- her fears.
