La lección de August (Wonder, Spanish Edition)
Auggie Pullman, who was born with extreme facial abnormalities, goes from being home-schooled to entering fifth grade at a private middle school in Manhattan, which entails enduring the taunting and fear of his classmates. This is the Spanish language edition of Wonder.
Su cara lo hace distinto y él sólo quiere ser uno más.
Aunque siempre trata de esconder su rostro, es objeto de miradas, susurros y reacciones de asombro. August sale poco, su vida transcurre entre las acogedoras paredes de su casa, en compañía de su familia, su perra Daisy y las increíbles historias de La guerra de las galaxias.
Este año todo va a cambiar, porque va a ir por primera vez a la escuela. Allí aprenderá la lección más importante de su vida: crecer en la adversidad, aceptarse tal como es, sonreír a los días grises y saber que, al final, siempre encontrará una mano amiga.
"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 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.
