Wonder - R. J. Palacio

Read the internationally bestselling book before you watch the major movie from Lionsgate starring Julia Roberts and Owen Wilson. This special edition is complete with exclusive behind-the-scenes content. The unforgettable and life-affirming story of August Pullman - a boy who's desperate to blend in but is destined to stand out. 'My name is August. I won't describe what I look like. Whatever you're thinking it's probably worse.' Auggie wants to be an ordinary ten-year-old. He does ordinary things - eating ice cream playing on his Xbox. He feels ordinary - inside. But ordinary kids don't make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds. Ordinary kids aren't stared at wherever they go. Born with a terrible facial abnormality Auggie has been home-schooled by his parents his whole life. Now for the first time he's being sent to a real school. All he wants is to be accepted. But can he convince his new classmates that he's just like them underneath it all? Astonishingly powerful WONDER is a read you'll never forget.
