Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse." These are the words of Auggie, a ten-year-old who desires nothing more than to feel like any other kid. He loves ice cream, enjoys his Xbox, and considers himself ordinary at heart. However, life is not so simple for him; his facial difference causes other children to react dramatically, making him a target for stares and sometimes fear. Having been home-schooled up to now, Auggie is about to face the challenge of attending school for the first time. Acceptance is all he craves, but will his new peers see beyond his appearance?"WONDER" is a profoundly impactful story that lingers in the reader's mind.
