All Star Comics were our suggestion (website here: http://www.allstarcomics.com.au/)

They’re extremely helpful and really knowledgeable about their comics.

Thanks for your comment! Smile is brilliant, isn’t it? Definitely worth a recommendation! I’ve now updated the post to include a link to our original graphic novels book list (which has Smile on it).

For middle grade/middle years readers who don’t necessarily go down the super-hero highway, Smile by Raina Telgemeier (Scholastic) is brilliant.

Getting braces is such a commonplace thing these days. Raina’s story is dramatic, funny and tender, with a nice rite-of-passage dimension, set in a recognisable world.
