What is the book about?

This book is about a young boy called August Pullman ; he has a facial disfigurement, which can make him feel left out or that no one likes him. Auggie has had many surgeries, which means he has only been able to be homeschooled. He is in the 5th grade so he is starting middle school. He has finally decided to be brave and start Beecher Prep, along with other students. Once he starts there is more drama than he could ever imagine and the road through middle school was going to be a lot harder than he thought.

Recommendation

I would recommend this book for 10+ ages. It has a strong message about how to treat other people and not to be mean and stoop to their level- to rise above them! It contains all the emotions, from happy and excited to upset and angry. This is definitely a book to try even if it doesn't seem for you.

5/5 stars
