Wonder

Choose kind with R.J. Palacio’s modern classic, *Wonder*. August Pullman was born with a facial difference that has kept him from going to a mainstream school—until now. Starting fifth grade at Beecher Prep, Auggie wants nothing more than to be treated like an ordinary kid—but his new classmates can’t get past his extraordinary face. Told from multiple perspectives, including Auggie’s, his sister’s, and his friends’, this novel paints a portrait of a community struggling with empathy and acceptance. Inspiring, heartbreaking, and ultimately uplifting, this is a book that everyone needs to read.
