It takes a hell of a creator to write a graphic novel about dental work that anyone would want to read, but Raina Telgemeier's Smile: A Dental Drama not only won an Eisner and the Boston Globe Horn Book Award (the first graphic novel to be so honored), it was also a big hit with young readers. Her followup Drama was just named to the YALSA Top Ten Graphic Novels for Teens list and was recognized as a Stonewall Honor book, and it's a cinch to garner more awards as the year goes on. Both books have spent a lot of time on The New York Times bestseller list; Drama hit the No. 1 spot in January, and Smile made the list recently as well, even though it was published more than two years ago.

So Tuesday's announcement is big news: Telgemeier has signed with Scholastic's Graphix imprint (the publishers of Drama and Smile) for two more books. The first one, due out next year, will be called Sisters and, like Smile, will be autobiographical, dealing with the relationship between Telgemeier and her younger sister. That's all we know for now; Telgemeier is working on the book and shared a penciled drawing on her blog. The second book doesn't have a title yet, but it will also be a graphic novel.
