Â
This special movie tie-in edition features an eight-page full-color insert with photos from the film,Â a foreword by the director Stephen Chbosky, an afterword by R.J. Palacio, a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the movie with anecdotes from the cast and crew, and a family discussion guide.
Â
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 kidâ‚¬"but his new classmates canâ‚¬t get past Auggieâ‚¬s extraordinary face.Â WONDER, now a #1Â New York TimesÂ bestseller and included on the Texas Bluebonnet Award master list, begins from Auggieâ‚¬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 communityâ‚¬s struggle with empathy, compassion, and acceptance.Â
Â
"Wonder is the best kids' book of the year," said Emily Bazelon, senior editor at Slate.com and author ofÂ 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.Â R.J. PalacioÂ has called her debut novel â‚¬Å“a meditation on kindnessâ‚¬Â â‚¬"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 thatÂ you canâ‚¬t blend in when you were born to stand out.Â
