Wonder 
The award-winning, multi-million-copy bestselling phenomenon

”Has the power to move hearts and change minds” Guardian
”Tremendously uplifting and a novel of all-too-rare power” Sunday Express
”An amazing book . . . I absolutely loved it. I cried my eyes out” Tom Fletcher
Read the award-winning, multi-million copy bestselling phenomenon that is WONDER in this new tenth anniversary edition.
”My name is August. I won”t describe what I look like. Whatever you”re thinking, it”s probably worse.”
Auggie wants to be an ordinary ten-year-old. He does ordinary things – eating ice cream, playing on his Xbox. He feels ordinary – inside. But ordinary kids don”t make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds. Ordinary kids aren”t stared at wherever they go.
Born with a terrible facial abnormality, Auggie has been home-schooled by his parents his whole life. Now, for the first time, he”s being sent to a real school – and he”s dreading it. All he wants is to be accepted – but can he convince his new classmates that he”s just like them, underneath it all?
A funny, frank, astonishingly moving debut – and a true global phenomenon – to read in one sitting, pass on to others, and remember long after the final page.
