Wonder by R.J. Palacio

August doesn't look like other people. In fact, his looks are so abnormal that people gasp when they first meet him. How then, does he have the courage to start attending school and putting up with the whispers, stares, and bullies?

This novel is a first for writer R.J. Palacio who tells a beautiful story of love, laughter, and achievement. It is a must-read for anyone who at any time has felt shunned by others. The writing is simple and refreshing; the book is a quick read.
