Book Talk: Wonder by R. J. Palacio

Wonder
by R. J. Palacio
Call Number YA PAL
WVPL - BB & Ambler


Appearances aren't all they seem. Auggie Pullman is the same as anyone else. He's an average kid. Except he's not average. He's a wonder. A random set of genes came together to give Auggie a facial deformity from birth. Up to now, Auggie has been sheltered and home schooled. Now though, Auggie is going to face his biggest challenge yet: school.

This is the story of Auggie's first year in school meeting kids his age and making friends.

Still not sure? Just read the first page.
