Synopsis "Wonder "

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.

While R. J. Palacio was busy designing beautiful covers for hundreds of authors, she dreamed of writing a novel one day. However, it seemed like the right time never came until she realized that all she had to do was start. Wonder. The Lesson of August, her first novel, became a global phenomenon that has inspired more than a million people. Following this title were Wonder. The Story of Julian, Wonder. The Game of Christopher, and Wonder. Charlotte Speaks Up.

When Palacio decided to write Mr. Browne's Book of Precepts, she asked her readers for help: within two weeks, she had received over a thousand postcards with precepts from all around the world.
