Ten-year-old Auggie Pullman, who was born with extreme facial abnormalities and was not expected to survive, goes from being home-schooled to entering fifth grade at a private middle school in Manhattan, which entails enduring the taunting and fear of his classmates as he struggles to be seen as just another student.

This is a really entertaining and interesting story that makes you think about human nature. It is a funny and meaningful story about friendship. _Wonder_ made me think a lot about how we ALL judge people based on how they look. It's interesting that since we never see Auggie, we have the chance to get to know him without judging him on his looks. All the other characters in the book don't get to meet him that way.
