Wonder

In the book Wonder by R.J. Palacio, 10 year old August (Auggie) Pullman faces many challenges due to his facial deformities. He has been home-schooled all his life, but Auggie's parents decided it was time for him to start school. He goes through many challenges, and makes some friends along the way. To me, this book shows us that people can work together,even when there are minor,or major differences. In the beginning of the book,you can see Auggie overcoming things with his friends.  For example, during The Halloween party, Jack, Auggie's best friend says bad things about Auggie right in front of him. Auggie gets mad, but stays in school after his mom, his sister, and Summer being kind to him.but when jack will finds out what he did he texts: "hey, august. its me jack will. i noticed im not on ur friends list anymore.hope u friend me agen cuz im really sorry. i just wanted to say that. sorry. i know why ur mad at me now im sorry i didn't mean the stuff i said. i was so stupid. i hope u can 4give me." after this auggie forgives him. 7 This shows that he can be brave, with help, even in hard times. This is especially hard for him because of his physical differences, but this book shows that you can overcome anything, even if you’re different.
Also in this story, you can see Auggie's friends being kind and working together. They help him even if it affects their popularity. For example, when Auggie lost his hearing aids, Auggie’s friends (and frenemies) helped fight off the people trying to steal them, and then looked for them afterwards. This shows that people can care about others even if they look or act a little different. This also shows that you don’t have to be someone’s best friend to help them.
Towards the end of the story, you can see many examples of Auggie and his friends come together.when Auggie is brave and his friends at helpful and kind,great things happen.  For instance, when auggie wins the award and Mr. Tushman says "Now will August Pullman come up here to receive this award?" Auggie's friends help him up there and cheer him on. this shows teamwork because his friends cheer him on. also, he would never have gotten this without his friends. 
to me, this story shows us that, we can be different, on the inside out. you don't have to be a trend-follower. you can be a trend-setter, or be you. you don't have to be like everyone else. friends like you for you, no matter who you are.
