I won't describe what I look like. Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse.
August Pullman was born with a facial deformity 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 included on the Texas Bluebonnet Award master list, 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.
"Wonder is the best kids' book of the year," said Emily Bazelon, senior editor at Slate.com and author of Sticks and Stones: Defeating the Culture of Bullying and Rediscovering the Power of Character and Empathy . In a world where bullying among young people is an epidemic, this is a refreshing new narrative full of heart and hope. R.J. Palacio has called her debut novel “a meditation on kindness” —indeed, every reader will come away with a greater appreciation for the simple courage of friendship. Auggie is a hero to root for, a diamond in the rough who proves that you can’t blend in when you were born to stand out.

评分 评分 评分人容易产生的误区,是将所有的“实然”都当做“应然”。误区往往会使人陷入慌乱,就像是只见过白天鹅的人们突然见到了黑天鹅——当原本“应当”拥有的突然失去,或是以意想不到的方式呈现,人们便会措手不及,并将这样的际遇定义为“灾难”。 上天仁慈,可凡人还是要经受类似...
评分Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much.
评分把人变善良的书 :-3 “Kinder than is necessary. Because it's not enough to be kind. One should be kinder than needed.”
评分August Summer Jack Via
评分Wonder,这本小说能让看得人相信才是真正的Wonder。很多的转折都让人奇怪,没有过程描述,Miranda和Via突然好了。但是这还敌不上主角本身的光环。首先原来不喜欢他的Jack突然觉得他不错,然后所有人突然都不支持欺负他(书中只用几句话说明这一情况),还很有义气地挺身而出,更可怕的是最后毫无顾忌地与他拍照……当然via一段自白实在是太经典了!
评分shall we make a new rule of life...always to try to be a little kinder than is necessary?
