"Wonder" is the funny, sweet and incredibly moving story of Auggie Pullman. Born with a terrible facial abnormality, this shy, bright ten-year-old has been home-schooled by his parents for his whole life, in an attempt to protect him from the stares and cruelty of the outside world. Now, for the first time, Auggie is being sent to a real school - and he's dreading it. The thing is, Auggie's just an ordinary kid, with an extraordinary face. But can he convince his new classmates that he's just like them, underneath it all? Through the voices of Auggie, his big sister Via, and his new friends Jack and Summer, "Wonder" follows Auggie's journey through his first year at Beecher Prep. Frank, powerful, warm and often heart-breaking, "Wonder" is a book you'll read in one sitting, pass on to others, and remember long after the final page.

As a class our teacher ms Richardson is reading this book wonder to all of room 28 This Is a fantastic book about a boy named august who has some trouble at school, as it is his first school. Some people like him and some don't but all august really needs is some encouragement. That way, he will not be as shy and will feel the same as everyone else does... Normal. I recommend this book for the age 7 and over This book is good for people who like story's with a not so good beginning but a fantastic end.

If you love Wonder, you have to read Out of My Mind. It's about a girl who has a disability. She can't walk or talk or even have enough strength to pick a pencil up. She's going to school to try and be normal but there's bumps along the way. It's a sad book but I think it's just like Wonder.
