But I know they’re there.Billions of people.People of all different colors. People who walk and talk differently.People who look different.Like me!The Earth is big enough for all kinds of people.”- Auggie
I picked up We're All Wonders by R.J. Palacio last week. It's a story about Auggie Pullman, who was born with a facial difference. This is the children's version of the book written by the same author of Wonder.The story is told from Auggie's perspective and he talks about how he understands that he isn't ordinary. He does ordinary things but doesn't look like an ordinary boy. He wants others to look at him for who he is, a wonder. This book educates about the importance of empathy and being kin...
I love this kid so much.
I think it needs more pages! Seriously! It was amazing, albeit short. And yes, I get it is for kids and should be short, but it is so beautiful that I just wanted to keep on reading :)
"Look with kindness and you will always find wonder."I absolutely love 'Wonder' so when I saw there was an illustrated book, I knew I had to read it. Based on the popular series by R.J. Palacio, this work introduces August Pullman to a younger audience. This beautifully illustrated book perfectly compliments the book that inspired it. After all, its never too early to start teaching about the importance of kindness and empathy. A book that is appropriate for all. Very sweet and cute and oh so re...
Read this to my little sister, very inspirational... plus I just love Wonder :)
Winner of Goodreads' Choice Award for Picture Book.One needs to realize that not everyone has the same traits as they have. Everyone is different. Everyone is unique. All of us has a Wonder in us.
Based on the book Wonder. This story follows a boy who looks very different and is made fun of. He uses his imagination to escape. This book is about people being the same on the inside and having a different outside. The art is fun here and the story is saying something profound. No one likes to be made fun of. We can't help the way we look.It's also a great introduction to the book Wonder for kids. The nephew and niece had a lot of questions with this book.
I love the original Wonder so much! This version is still a great book to teach my 7-year-old empathy and kindness.
‘We’re All Wonders’ is the latest addition to R. J. Palacio’s ‘Wonder’ series of books. This time it’s aimed at a much younger audience – it’s a picture story book with a small amount of accompanying text. Billed as a brand new and original adventure for Auggie Pullman – this one’s all about Auggie and his dog Daisy. The story is a good one, well told and the illustrations (also by Palacio) are lovely. This new book (along with the other ‘Wonder’ books) is now very much a touchstone of the movem...
I love this.
I loved this book. Every child that feels like they are different can read it and know they are not alone and they are special too. It talks about being different from the other kids, but still the same. I talks about how your feelings get hurt and using your imagination to escape. Then, it talks about how people can be accepting and kind all in simple words that kids can understand. Just right for helping little ones that may not always fit in easily with their peers understand that they are ju...
A picture book with great intentions and questionable execution. If you haven't read the midgrade novel this book is based on, you'll have no idea what makes the main character different from other kids. (The roommate's assumption was that it was about a kid with one eye, because nothing in the story says otherwise.) The specificity of Auggie's disabilities disappear under a cloud of platitudes about how special we all are. For teachers and parents in the know, maybe that makes reading this pict...
This is the abbreviated children’s picture book version of R.J. Palacio’s much acclaimed Wonder. It is about a boy with facial deformities who is felt to be a wonder by his immediate family, but he knows that other people look at him differently. He hears the unkind things they say behind his back and his feelings are hurt as a result. He escapes into an imaginary world on Pluto with strange space creatures. He realizes from this far away vantage point that the world is big enough for all kinds
Read for my daughter. Fantastic book!
This is the picture book version of the book Wonder by R.J. Palacio! The picture book was fantastic! I hope it wins for the 2017 Goodreads' awards for Best Picture Book!
4★Lovely idea to introduce the boy whose story was told for somewhat older readers in the author’s earlier book Wonder. Auggie is not called by name here, but WE know who he is. Well, we who are familiar with the first book do. This is a very simple prequel.He’s only a little fellow here, which will help young children identify with his story. It will also help parents and teachers show kids that he likes lots of ordinary things that they like. He rides a bike and kicks a ball.The artwork is...
Each year my family reads all the Goodreads-award-nominated picture books, and we have been doing this for years. Everyone rates each book and adds a comment and it may (or may not) affect my overall rating. This is book #4 of 2017.Tara: 3 stars. Nice. I liked the art. Similar message of lots of book but sweet.Harry (12): 5 stars. Loved it! We're all wonders, yes! [Yes, you are, Harry!] Nice art.Hank (11): 3.8 stars. I like how they show how everyone is different in some ways.Lyra (10): 4 stars....
What an amazing book! I love love love "Wonder" the novel, and it's so great to see the message of Auggie's story being portrayed in this beautiful picture book, all done by none other than the author of the novel herself. We need to have more stories like this told to everyone!
“The Earth is big enough for all kinds of people.”This is a short, illustrated book about a boy named Auggie. He found himself different from others or to be precise, unique because of his looks.However, this doesn't stop him from following his dream of becoming an astronaut as a kid and through his story, he wants people to understand that we are all beautiful and loved, and it's important to spread kindness and empathy towards one another.The narrative of this story makes it sound so innocent
