Auggie è un ragazzo normale, ma con una faccia... straordinaria!Nato con il volto deforme, protetto dalla sua meravigliosa famiglia per i primi dieci anni della sua vita, adesso, per la prima volta, deve affrontare la scuola. Chi gli siederà vicino? Chi lo guarderà dritto negli occhi? Auggie è sfortunato, ma tenace e sa vedere il lato buffo delle cose. Riuscirà a convincere i suoi compagni che lui è proprio come loro, nonostante le apparenze?

  August has severe facial abnormalities. Until now he's had too many health issues to go to school. He's unsure about starting fifth grade because people have always recoiled at the sight of him. Diane Steele's sweet, raspy characterization echoes his strength and vulnerability. WONDER is told from six points of view, starting and ending with August's own. Several chapters in the middle are from the perspectives of his sister and friends. Kate Rudd and Nick Podehl narrate these chapters adroitly. On the other hand, multiple narrators means multiple characterizations of each character. In dialogue the narrators each give the same cast of characters different accents and attitudes. It's slightly disorienting. Regardless, WONDER is an incredible story. A.M.P. © AudioFile 2012, Portland, Maine
