WONDER BY R.J. PALACIO

 

 

 

PLOT:
August (Auggie) Pullman was born with a facial deformity that prevented him from going to a mainstream school—until now. He's about to start 5th grade at Beecher Prep, and if you've ever been the new kid then you know how hard that can be. The thing is Auggie's just an ordinary kid, with an extraordinary face. But can he convince his new classmates that he's just like them, despite appearances?

REVIEW:
I had heard many a good thing about this book, so when our school library got it in, I grabbed it and signed it out. I was drawn into this book from the first chapter and I found Auggie's character to be enchanting and inspiring. The courage Auggie showed through everything he went through and the change went through by Amos and Henry gave me hope for the world.

Overall this book was beautiful and enchanting. I would recommend this to anyone of any age, it is beautiful.
