I wonder, are you enjoying Wonder? :)

We are in the middle of reading the amazing book Wonder by R.J. Palacio. It's about 5th grader August Pullman who is starting public school for the first time. He's nervous, just like every other kid starting middle school, but Auggie is not your average 5th grader. His face is a bit of a medical mystery.
"I won't describe what I look like. Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse."
 I am loving this book and the positive message that it sends. What are your thoughts on the book so far? Since you are also starting middle school, can you relate to Auggie in any way?

  8. I thought Wonder sent a good message to. The book was very detailed about Auggie's struggles in going into 5th grade and meeting new kids. What really annoyed me was that Julian said,"Were you in a fire or something?'' It's just why would someone say that it's rude and mean.

    1. Ha Ha! Your comment made me laugh Lena :) I LOVE your sense of humor!
      It is really important to not judge a person by the way they look. If you did you may miss out on meeting some really great people. Good job picking up on the theme of the book!
