Wonder Literary Essay

                                 

The important idea in the book Wonder is don’t judge a boy by his face. Pretty much they are saying don’t judge a book by its cover. The story is about a boy who has a facial deformity and he was always homeschooled. For fifth grade he decides he will go to a real school, he it is easier than he thought but harder for a kid like him. The theme in the story is that you really shouldn’t be a bully because it may hurt the person much more than you think.

             In the story you will see how Auggie changes, gets stronger and has more friends. For example, he met Summer, he thought the principal talked to her. But the principal didn’t, she just was doing it to be nice, that made auggie happy. This shows that if you are nice to others then you can change some ones day. " Jack: can we b frenz agen? August: ok Jack: awsum!!!! August: lol yes dude we'r fenz agen. " That made auggie happy that he got an email from jack.

Also he met Jack, the principal talked to him but later on jack actually liked auggie. For example, he didn’t really like auggie until he realized that auggie was a nice kid and that he was a great friend and his face didn’t matter. This shows that if you really spend time with someone then you may find that someone is better than you thought.

           By the end of the story auggie has freinds and is not judged by his face but by his heart. For example, summer and jack don’t even care about how he looks anymore. This shows that if you look past how the person looks they may be prettier inside than out. In some situations the person may seem weird or crazy, but don’t judge them if it only happened once. Or twice or even three times. Give them a chance.

             So the theme in the story is don’t be mean because it could hurt that person so much more then you think. This relates to real life because so many people are bullied by their skin color or how they look. Is it really necesarry? Stand up for yourself. And don’t make others feel bad about who they are just because they are slightly different than you!
