A review by dainaphile
The Julian Chapter by R.J. Palacio

5.0

I am telling you guys, Parenating is no easy job! Don't justify your kids unkind actions by any means just to make him happy. These kind of endearments may be causing your child to be a Bully, for he knows you got his back no matter how horrible his actions might be.

Readers could only guess what he was thinking. [b:The Julian Chapter|20878809|The Julian Chapter (Wonder #1.5)|R.J. Palacio|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1399502333s/20878809.jpg|40218701] finally revealed the bully's side of the story and now I know why Julian turns into a mean boy. He has his own story. Before judging him please read this book.

One mistake doesn't define you.

Yes, Julian made a horrible mistake. But that doesn't define him, for he is remorseful for his ruthless action at the end. Moreover, he possess enough courage to take the responsibility of his wrong deeds which makes him a wonderful kid!
