Wonder is a short, intent, powerful, loving experience. What a beautiful story and what a beautiful set of characters.

A bit of coming of age, a bit of history in this story of a young boy, Silas, who attempts to find his father who was captured by a group of horsemen. Silas, along with his friend, Mittenwool-a ghost, ride a baldfaced pony to rescue his father. Along the way, they meet a marshal, and then a sheriff (Cornwall), as they attempt to save his Pa from the men. Silas's dad is a brilliant man, applying for a patent for irontypes, a form of photography. But, the men wanted Pa for another reason-they suspected him to be Mac Boat, a notorious counterfeiter and thief.
The story of Silas is tender and sweet, and your heart will go through various emotions as you read this tale of a young boy with a deep love for his parents, and the ability to talk to the dead.

This book is a great reminder that, "you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover". August (Auggie) was born with facial deformity and has undergone 27 surgeries. He has been homeschooled until fourth grade. This book discussed Auggie's experiences at school, both positive and negative. This book is a great read to remind everyone that kindness goes a long way and be a buddy not a bully! This book can be used to remind students that we are all unique in our own way and some of our differences might not be as noticeable.… (more)
