PALACIO,RJ
My name is August. I won't describe what I look like.
Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse.
Auggie
wants to be an ordinary ten-year-old. He does ordinary things — eating
ice cream, playing on his Xbox. He feels ordinary — inside. But ordinary
kids don't make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds.
Ordinary kids aren't stared at wherever they go.Born with a
terrible facial abnormality, Auggie has been home-schooled by his
parents his whole life. Now, for the first time, he's being sent to a
real school — and he's dreading it. All he wants is to be accepted — but
can he convince his new classmates that he's just like them, underneath
it all?Wonder is a funny, frank, astonishingly moving debut to read in one sitting, pass on to others and remember long after the final page.
