   ‘Ik heet August, en ik ga niet beschrijven hoe ik eruitzie. Wat je ook denkt, ik weet bijna zeker dat het erger is.’ Auggie Pullman is geboren met een gezichtsafwijking, en ook na veel operaties ziet hij er nog heel ongewoon uit. Hij doet zijn best niet op te vallen, maar mensen schrikken als ze hem zien, en ze staren of kijken weg. Als hij tien is gaat hij voor het eerst naar een gewone school. Auggie is bang dat hij niet geaccepteerd zal worden, en hij krijgt gelijk. Zijn klasgenoten negeren hem en sommigen beginnen hem te pesten. Maar er is één meisje dat zich niet door Auggies uiterlijk laat afschrikken... Wonder is het eerste boek van R.J. Palacio en het is meteen een enorm succes. In Amerika was Wonder hét boek van het jaar en begonnen lezers campagnes tegen pesten. Het boek verschijnt in meer dan vijfentwintig landen.

• PLUTO

  • R. J. Placio

  Almost 2 million people have read the New York Times bestseller Wonder and fallen in love with Auggie Pullman. Last year listeners were given a special look at another side of his story with The Julian Chapter, and now they'll get a peek at Auggie's life before Beecher Prep, with a short story told entirely from the point of view of Christopher, Auggie's oldest friend. Christopher was Auggie's best friend from the time they were babies until his family moved away; he was there through all of Auggie's surgeries and heartbreaks, through bad times and good--like Star Wars marathons and dreams of traveling to Pluto together. Alternating between childhood flashbacks and the present day, an especially bad day for Christopher, Pluto is the story of two boys grown apart learning that good friendships are worth a little extra effort
