I loved this book. I loved August’s
strength. I loved his sister’s honesty, even if not spoken directly to August.
I loved his friends and their support for August, but still they were honest to
themselves about the difficulties they felt with the friendship. All of these
aspects of Wonder made the story that
much more realistic and true for me. The story wasn’t sugar coated and as a
person with a slight disability I understood some of August’s feelings and the
dreaded stares. I feel every middle school
child, boys and girls, should have to read this book – both the bullies and the
bullied.
