Wonder
By, Aashka Shah
You should read the book Wonder. In the book “Wonder” by R. J. Palacio the main character is August Pullman. He has a Treacher-Collins syndrome. This affects the way he looks. He is going to a new school and is trying to fit in. But he is trying to make friends. He made a friend but the friend is mean to Augets. So they are not friends anymore. He now does not trust anyone. But as school goes on people might change their thoughts about him. This is a very good book and I suggest that you read it.
