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.

評分 評分这是我的第一本让我爱不释手的英文原版小说。我花了两天时间读完。封面上写着"you can't blend in when you were born to stand out"让我相信它是一本值得去翻阅的书。虽说它是儿童小说,可并不代表它是幼稚肤浅的。相反,用简单的语言却无不透着感人至深的真理,这才是这本小...
評分我的名字叫奥古斯特,我就不描述自己长什么样了。不管你怎么想,情况只可能更糟。 ——来自十岁了却从没上过学的奥古斯特 杰克·伦敦说:“你不能坐等灵感,你得拿着棒子追寻它。” 很多文学作品的灵感来源于现实,列夫·托尔斯泰的《安娜·卡列琳娜》的灵感源于妻子的一位远方...
評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...

评分非常暖心的一本兒童小說。由於基因問題而天生麵貌迥異於常人的August, 在10歲的時候第一次去普通的學校讀書。帶著忐忑不安和按捺不住的興奮和期許,August 認識瞭許多新朋友。而這些“新朋友”就像是一個個縮小的社會人,影射著人與人之間的矛盾,衝突,理解和支持。在麵臨朋友的“背叛”時,August 首先想到的是討厭學校,是逃避。他的姐姐Via說,“ unless you want to be treated like a baby the rest of your life, or like a kid with special needs, you just have to suck it up and go." 勇氣和成長是一生的話題,需要不斷的學習和努力,纔能成為想要變成的人。
评分很溫暖的書,非常好讀。
