WONDER

The book is about a 10 year old boy named Augustin Pullman. He is acctually a normal boy but he has a problem. His face is nothing like other faces. This makes Augustin’s life very hard because noone will accept him the way he looks and wont want to know him and how he really is. The book is mainly about that to his 10th birthday his parents decide that they can’t teach him anymore at home and send him to middle-school so he can live a normal life like other kids of his age. Augustin is scared and doesn’t want to go. We liked the book very much and we think that every age could read it and enjoy.
