Wonder

                       Wonder  

Wonder is by R.J. Palacio.There are many different kinds of books but this is about a boy who looks different from any other boy.

This book is about a boy named August who has never gone to school before. Why? Because everybody always stares at him because he has a deformed face. In August’s case his mouth and eyes aren’t where they usually are. August pretends not to notice other students staring at him but he does. He doesn’t have any friends and some try to be his friend but none mean it. August went to school finally and has made friends or so he thinks. Read this book if you have ever felt different.

I like this book because it is about how we shouldn’t judge people by the way they look. Also don’t stare at others when they are different .I dislike this book because it can make you sob and feel very sad. For example, when August doesn’t have any friends and everybody is staring at him. I would recommend this book to 10-13 year olds and up. It is a good read and makes you think a lot about how people are different. I like how the author switches to other people in the book’s point of view.For example, each chapter/section is from a different person’s point of view or memory, like August’s sister or one of his friends.

I would give this book five stars for how many emotions and great events it shows you.
