Publisher's Summary #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Millions of people have fallen in love with Auggie Pullman, an ordinary boy with an extraordinary face—who shows us that kindness brings us together no matter how far apart we are. Listen to the book that inspired the Choose Kind movement, a major motion picture, and the critically acclaimed graphic novel White Bird. And don't miss R.J. Palacio's highly anticipated new novel, Pony, available now! I won't describe what I look like. Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse. August Pullman was born with a facial difference 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. Beginning from Auggie’s point of view and expanding to include his classmates, his sister, her boyfriend, and others, the perspectives converge to form a portrait of one community’s struggle with empathy, compassion, and acceptance. In a world where bullying among young people is an epidemic, this is a refreshing new narrative full of heart and hope. R.J. Palacio has called her debut novel “a meditation on kindness”—indeed, every listener will come away with a greater appreciation for the simple courage of friendship. Auggie is a hero to root for, a diamond in the rough who proves that you can’t blend in when you were born to stand out. ©2012 R. J. Palacio (P)2022 Listening Library

I listened to this book on audible with my kids as part of their school work. It was nothing short of fantastic!The writing was really engaging for my kids (ages 12 and 11) but it didn’t shy away from tough topics and tough feelings. Even though hard subjects were covered, it was beautifully done and made for some amazing conversation points.As a parent I adored the various POVs and how it unfolded deeper meaning to the themes for my kids. I loved everything about this book!
R.J Palacio's book was amazing.I remembered the part when Daisy died and before I even saw her.
