This book deserves more than the hype.
10-year-old auggie pullman has a facial disorder that keeps him from blending in. he tries to ignore the double takes people make or the whispers behind his back, but it's hard to do that when he's catapulted into the adolescent abomination of middle school. it's a beautiful novel about self acceptance in the midst of social hierarchy and i recommend it for readers 10+.
