A beautiful, color illustrated edition of the #1 New York Times
bestseller, Wonder, with a new afterword from the author. Experience
the extraordinary story that inspired the Choose Kind movement, like
never before.
August Pullman was born with a facial difference that, up until now, has
prevented him from going to a mainstream school. Starting 5th grade at
Beecher Prep, he wants nothing more than to be treated as an ordinary
kid--but his new classmates can't get past Auggie's extraordinary face.
WONDER, now a #1 New York Times bestseller and a blockbuster hit,
begins from Auggie's point of view, but soon switches to include his
classmates, his sister, her boyfriend, and others. These perspectives
converge in a portrait of one community's struggle with empathy,
compassion, and acceptance.
This beautiful, color illustrated edition includes over twenty-five
pieces of original art from Tad Carpenter, the artist behind the
original cover. It also includes an essay from R.J. Palacio reflecting
on ten years of Wonder and an introduction by Dina Zuckerberg,
director of family programs at myFace, a non-profit dedicated to
supporting the craniofacial difference community. Experience this
extraordinary story like never before.
