Read the internationally bestselling book before you watch the major movie from Lionsgate, starring Julia Roberts and Owen Wilson. This special edition is complete with exclusive behind-the-scenes content. The unforgettable and life-affirming story of August Pullman - a boy who´s desperate to blend in, but is destined to stand out. ´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. All he wants is to be accepted. But can he convince his new classmates that he´s just like them, underneath it all? Astonishingly powerful, WONDER is a read you´ll never forget.
