Wonder

            Depending on how you look at it, wonder can teach you many life lessons . After reading  the story Wonder, and talking about it with others  it seems that everyone sees the same message  in the book.

  

The important idea   in the book Wonder  is that you should never 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. So many people do this and they don’t even realize it. And the sad part is, someone always gets hurt. Bullies usually do it because they either had the same experience or something at home is going on. But anyone can help, stomp out bullying. Maybe they don’t have friends, or maybe they have a mean older sibling. People do it all the time.

             In the story you will see how Auggie changes, gets stronger and has more friends. For example, he met Summer, he thought the principal ( 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 ( A cartoon 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 more than one chance. Put yourself in their shoes. Would you like to be them if people judge them all the time? I don’t think that you would.

             So the theme in the story is don’t be mean because it could hurt that person so much more then you think. Some kids and maybe some adults ( and adult pointing at another laughing ) judge people about how they look. And the way jack became auggies friend shows that if people are nice you realize who you really are. Are you a bully who makes people feel bad or are you a nice caring person ( A nice person )? 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!
