Summary
NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING JULIA ROBERTS， OWEN WILSON， AND JACOB TREMBLAY！
Over 6 million people have read the #1 New York Times bestseller WONDER and have fallen in love with Auggie Pullman， an ordinary boy with an extraordinary face。
The book that inspired the Choose Kind movement。
I won’t describe what I look like。 Whatever you’re thinking， it’s probably worse。
August Pullman was born with a facial difference that， up until now， has prevented him from going to a mainstream school。 Starting 5th grade at Beecher Prep， he wants nothing more than to be treated as an ordinary kid—but his new classmates can’t get past Auggie’s extraordinary face。 WONDER， now a #1 New York Times bestseller and included on the Texas Bluebonnet Award master list， begins from Auggie’s point of view， but soon switches to include his classmates， his sister， her boyfriend， and others。 These perspectives converge in a portrait of one community’s struggle with empathy， compassion， and acceptance。
“Wonder is the best kids’ book of the year，” said Emily Bazelon， senior editor at Slate。com and author of Sticks and Stones: Defeating the Culture of Bullying and Rediscovering the Power of Character and Empathy。 In a world where bullying among young people is an epidemic， this is a refreshing new narrative full of heart and hope。 R。J。 Palacio has called her debut novel “a meditation on kindness” —indeed， every reader will come away with a greater appreciation for the simple courage of friendship。 Auggie is a hero to root for， a diamond in the rough who proves that you can’t blend in when you were born to stand out。

This book is very child-friendly and heartwarming but what I don't like about this book is that the creator made it a little babyish， I know is for the kids to teach them lessons but I think this is what it needs to improve。 In conclusion， is not that I'm judging this book or anything and I still enjoy reading it。 This book is very child-friendly and heartwarming but what I don't like about this book is that the creator made it a little babyish， I know is for the kids to teach them lessons but I think this is what it needs to improve。 In conclusion， is not that I'm judging this book or anything and I still enjoy reading it。 。。。more

August Pullman （Auggie to his friends） is not an ordinary 10-year-old boy。 He feels like one and has the interests of one， but his face is not ordinary at all。 In fact， it's the type of face that scares kids and makes people stare。 Auggie is pretty good natured about it all。 This is the way he is， after all， and while he doesn’t like that people stare， there’s not much he can do about it。 t‘s the straightforward， non-sentimental manner in which Palacio approaches her topic that makes this such a August Pullman （Auggie to his friends） is not an ordinary 10-year-old boy。 He feels like one and has the interests of one， but his face is not ordinary at all。 In fact， it's the type of face that scares kids and makes people stare。 Auggie is pretty good natured about it all。 This is the way he is， after all， and while he doesn’t like that people stare， there’s not much he can do about it。 t‘s the straightforward， non-sentimental manner in which Palacio approaches her topic that makes this such an excellent book。 Auggie might have an extraordinary face， but he's a regular kid， and that makes him relatable， in spite of his challenges。 Palacio also shifts her point of view， telling the story through the eyes of characters other than Auggie。 This allows the reader to get to know characters like Auggie's sister， Via， who talks about the way her brother takes over the family’s life。 However， some of the other viewpoints—especially of Via’s friends—feel somewhat unnecessary and bog down the middle of the book。The power of the book likes in how Palacio creates such a normal， relatable character from a boy living with such an extraordinary physical affliction。 Even though "Wonder" is recommended for children ages 8 through 12， the book's themes of identity， bullying， and acceptance make it interesting reading for a wide audience as well。 。。。more

Me ha gustado。 Creo que para ser primer libro de la autora lo ha hecho excelente， ya que muestra la vida tan difícil que le toca vivir a Auggie debido a la enfermedad que ha hecho que su cara esté deforme。 Me encanta que a pesar de la situación que le toca sufrir tiene una familia 👪 que lo ama y hace todo lo posible por protegerlo。La capacidad de ganarse los corazones de sus futuros amigos lo hace especial。Y sí， todo mundo merece ser ovacionado aunque sea una vez en la vida。

Wonder is one of that reads which will leave you smiling and a bit teary eye the moment you end up reading the last sentence。 This book is worth the hype， exploring hidden feelings of individuals behind the veil we all carry on our faces。 Leaving with a lesson " to always be a little kinder than is necessary"。 Wonder is one of that reads which will leave you smiling and a bit teary eye the moment you end up reading the last sentence。 This book is worth the hype， exploring hidden feelings of individuals behind the veil we all carry on our faces。 Leaving with a lesson " to always be a little kinder than is necessary"。 。。。more

Although reading this book years after it came out and after seeing the movie first， this beautiful and timeless story was just the uplift I needed。 It was a quick read and one I plan to share with my daughters when they are old enough。 It warmed my heart and left me feeling hopeful， something we could all use more of these days。

Necesito que toda persona en este mundo， aunque sea una sola vez en si vida， lea este libro。"La elección de August" es demasiado precioso， si bien cuenta una historia triste dentro de todo， con muchos altibajos， es un libro que te llena el alma y que le hace bien al corazón。Este libro te va a hacer sentir y hasta ver el mundo de una manera diferente。 Estoy completamente de acuerdo con todas las personas que dicen que este libro te "cambia" de alguna forma。La manera en la que todos los narradores Necesito que toda persona en este mundo， aunque sea una sola vez en si vida， lea este libro。"La elección de August" es demasiado precioso， si bien cuenta una historia triste dentro de todo， con muchos altibajos， es un libro que te llena el alma y que le hace bien al corazón。Este libro te va a hacer sentir y hasta ver el mundo de una manera diferente。 Estoy completamente de acuerdo con todas las personas que dicen que este libro te "cambia" de alguna forma。La manera en la que todos los narradores llegan a hacer que te encariñes con ellos， al punto de querer entrar al libro para darle un abrazo a la gran mayoría， me parece espectacular。 Amé a todos los personajes （excepto a los bullies， evidentemente） y siento que todos tuvieron un propósito en ma historia。Era muy triste ver la realidad de August y darte cuenta， en cierto punto， de cómo una mala reacción o un comentario sobre el aspecto de otra persona， por más mínimo e "inocente" que sea， puede afectar enormemente a quien lo recibe。 Me daba mucha bronca tener que leer todo lo que debía soportar August por culpa de la falta de empatía y de amor propio de algunos。 Por suerte， muchos de los personajes tuvieron una gran evolución con respecto al tema， lo cual me pareció hermoso。Tanto como los personajes secundarios， como el mismo August， tuvieron un muy buen desarrollo y es algo que se valora mucho。 Sin dudas fue interesante conocer la historia， pensamientos o modos de ver la historia de algunos personajes y de cierto modo sentirse identificado con alguno。Me gustó bastante conocer un poquito más a Summer o a Via en sus "puntos de vista"， como así me gustó conocer un poco de la historia de Jack。Siento que es un libro que está lleno de enseñanzas y de frases hermosas que se tornan inolvidables。 Es un libro que recomendaría a cualquier edad， ya que no está de más recordar los valores y enseñanzas que este libro inculca。Se tocan temas como la familia， la amistad， la aceptación， el bullying y el rechazo， la autosuperacion， la crueldad hacia el otro "diferente" y muchos temas más， los cuales se desarrollan bastante bien。Algunas enseñanzas:*No importa la apariencia de uno， sino lo que verdaderamente importa es lo de adentro， los sentimientos y valores。*Siempre hay que ser amable， porque cada persona está batallando sus propias luchas， y no cuesta nada ser amable。*La amistad es importante。*Tus actos son tus monumentos。*Todos pueden cambiar si realmente quieren hacerlo。"Si cada uno conviertera en norma que dondequiera que estén， siempre que puedan， intentarán ser un poco más amables de lo necesario。。。 el mundo sería un lugar mejor"Además es un libro que se lee SUPER rápido， que tiene capítulos cortos y una escritura bastante sencilla ¿Qué más quieren？ Hasta diría que es el libro perfecto。 Creo que me quedo corta dándole 5 estrellas porque realmente me encantó。 。。。more
