Wonder by R. J. Palacio
August has never been to school. Born with severe facial
deformities, Auggie’s parents have homeschooled him until now…his fifth grade
year. Auggie isn’t happy to be starting school. He’s well aware that people are
horrified by his appearance. Told in alternating points of view from Auggie,
his classmates, and his family, Auggie’s fifth grade year is documented in
sometimes funny, sometimes painful ways. This book isn’t just about a fifth
grader with physical issues, it’s about every kid who has ever had to endure
the life of a middle school kid.
