Wonder: A Review Of Auggie's Discovery

The book I am reviewing is one of my most recent reads, and is one of my favorite books. The book is called Wonder; it is a fantastic book on how society and his new school treats this 12 year old boy. August, or Auggie, his nickname that he goes by most of the time. August, despite his disease always has a positive look on the situation. Auggie`s sister Olivia or Via as she goes by at home has always been close to Auggie and always looks out for him. Auggie was born with a disease, that makes his face deformed and has been home schooled his whole life, but his parents have second thoughts on whether it’s time for Auggie to go to public school.
The parents both have different opinions on whether it’s time for Auggie to go to school. Auggie

already has a tough time as he gets multiple looks of disgust or stares when he goes into public or to public places. Auggie`s parents convince Auggie to at least go in the summer before school starts for a tour around the school. Auggie then decides to give public school a try. Auggie goes to school, on his first day of school everyone stares, but by now though Auggie is used to it. He tries to hide his face most of the time. Auggie secretly see as kids try no sneak a peek at him behind folders or when he’s not looking.
Nobody really talks to Auggie the first day or sits next to him in classes except Jack Will. One of the students Mr. Tushman had selected to give Auggie the tour around the school in the summer. Jack Will sits by Auggie in all their classes together. When lunch comes nobody sits by Auggie but a girl named Summer. Summer is really kind to Auggie, unlike her friends.
Auggie has a tough time at school and kids are vile to Auggie. They make up the plague which is similar to the stinky cheese touch. Nobody would high five Auggie, touch him, or dance with him during dance class. In my opinion his classmates were making a big fuss over nothing.
One day, they were allowed up dress up for Halloween. He wore a different costume than he planned. He walked into homeroom and overheard Jack Will talking ruthless about Auggie to Julian and Julian’s friends’ right in front of his face. Jack Will said that Mr. Tushman had made him be friends with Auggie.
Auggie ran out of the classroom and cried and missed homeroom. He then went to the nurse’s office and pretended to be sick to go home. He didn’t want to go back to school ever again, but Via was mad he gave up so quick and convinced him to give it another try. Auggie skipped trick or treating, his favorite thing to do, and remained to fake sick for a while. Auggies ears got depraved over this period of time and he had to get hearing aids. He finally returned to school and ignored Jack Will.
He told Summer all about what had happened and she couldn’t believe it. He kept a grudge against Jack Will until Jack Will asked Summer if Auggie was mad at him. Summer gave him the hint Scream which Auggie was dressed up as the day he heard Jack Will and said no more. Jack Will finally got the hint and apologized to Auggie and they were selected to work on a project together. They went on a school camp out trip later on. Him and Jack Will sneak out to the woods and come across some kids from another school being cruel to Auggie, they would make fun of him and Jack Will stood up for him and some other kids from his school. Auggie then became friends with these kids and kids at school had a whole new respect for Auggie. They weren’t afraid of Auggie any more they were Auggies friend, and wanted to be around Auggie.
