命運對他開瞭一個殘酷的玩笑,但愛,讓生命化為不可思議的奇跡!
十萬讀者鼓掌淚推!一個天生缺陷的男孩剋服萬難、勇敢長大的感人故事
「我不會把我的長相描述給你聽的。無論你腦中有什麼想象,恐怕都比那要糟得多。」——奧吉,十歲
成長,對他來說,是一條異常艱辛的道路,每跨一步,都需要比彆人還多的勇氣……怪物、外星人、惡心鬼、蜥蜴臉、突變人……彆人總是在他背後交頭接耳、竊竊私語。他是奧吉,一個遺傳罕見基因,天生臉部有殘缺的男孩。一齣生,醫生就斷定他活不過三個月,但奧吉卻憑著旺盛的生命力活瞭下來,經過大大小小的麵部整容手術,他逐漸朝「正常人」的路走去,但五官仍然非常扭麯,像有人用大鉗子把他的臉從中間壓扁。小時候,他不論走到哪都戴著一頂航天員頭盔,因為唯有躲在頭盔之下,纔不會引來彆人異樣的眼光。
十歲這一年,奧吉第一次踏進學校,進入瞭醜的、胖的、和彆人稍有不同就會被霸淩的殘酷青春期。就在他即將融入新學校之際,一場萬聖節的惡作劇把奧吉的自信打到榖地。惡作劇背後的真相究竟是什麼?因奧吉所掀起的戰爭,又有什麼驚人的內幕?在充滿潛規則的中學校園,一不小心,就會從「受歡迎」淪落為「被排擠」的邊緣人……到底誰是敵、誰是友?敵友的分界,是否真的如此壁壘分明?奧吉要如何靠著他的智慧和幽默感,化解危機?每個人的不同抉擇,又將如何扭轉自己和他人的命運?
奧吉的入學像是一顆震撼彈,深深影響瞭他周圍的人。作者除瞭描繪奧吉眼中的世界,也加入他同學、姊姊、姊姊的男友等六個青少年的多重敘事觀點,透過他們不同的快樂、煩惱、睏惑和掙紮,逐漸拼湊齣事件的全貌。
一個充滿淚水、愛與希望的生命旅程,述說一個平凡的男孩,如何接納自己、勇敢長大的不凡故事;也述說他的齣現,如何奇跡似的改變瞭所有人的一生……
The extraordinary #1 New York Times?bestseller that has captivated over 1 million readers.
I won't describe what I look like. Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse.
August Pullman was born with a facial difference that, up until now, has prevented him from going to a mainstream school. Starting 5th grade at Beecher Prep, he wants nothing more than to be treated as an ordinary kid—but his new classmates can’t get past Auggie’s extraordinary face. WONDER, now a #1?New York Times bestseller and included on the Texas Bluebonnet Award master list, begins from Auggie’s point of view, but soon switches to include his classmates, his sister, her boyfriend, and others. These perspectives converge in a portrait of one community’s struggle with empathy, compassion, and acceptance.
"Wonder is the best kids' book of the year," said Emily Bazelon, senior editor at Slate.com and author of Sticks and Stones: Defeating the Culture of Bullying and Rediscovering the Power of Character and Empathy. In a world where bullying among young people is an epidemic, this is a refreshing new narrative full of heart and hope. R.J. Palacio has called her debut novel “a meditation on kindness” —indeed, every reader will come away with a greater appreciation for the simple courage of friendship. Auggie is a hero to root for, a diamond in the rough who proves that you can’t blend in when you were born to stand out.

#1 New York Times bestseller
A School Library Journal Best of Children's Books 2012
A Publishers Weekly Best of Children's Books 2012
A Kirkus Reviews Best of Children's Books 2012
A Booklist Best of Children's Books 2012
"Wonder is essentially ... a wonder. It's well-written, engaging, and so much fun to read that the pages almost turn themselves. More than that, Wonder touches the heart in the most life-affirming, unexpected ways, delivering in August Pullman a character whom readers will remember forever. Do yourself a favor and read this book – your life will be better for it." - Nicholas Sparks, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Slate.com, October 10, 2012:
"Wonder is the best kids' book of the year."
Entertainment Weekly, February 17, 2012, The Top 10 Things We Love This Week:
"In a wonder of a debut, Palacio has written a crackling page-turner filled with characters you can't help but root for."
The New York Times, April 8, 2012:
"Rich and memorable...It's Auggie and the rest of the children who are the real heart of 'Wonder,' and Palacio captures the voices of girls and boys, fifth graders and teenagers, with equal skill."
The Wall Street Journal, June 9, 2012:
"What makes R.J. Palacio's debut novel so remarkable, and so lovely, is the uncommon generosity with which she tells Auggie's story…The result is a beautiful, funny and sometimes sob-making story of quiet transformation.”The Huffington Post,
March 1, 2012: "It's in the bigger themes that Palacio's writing shines. This book is a glorious exploration of the nature of friendship, tenacity, fear, and most importantly, kindness."
January 2013: "I think every mother and father would be better for having read it. Auggie's parents -- who are never named in the book, and don't even get to narrate a chapter of their own -- are powerful examples not only of how to shelter and strengthen a child with heartbreaking facial anomalies, but also of how to be a loving advocate to any kid."
The London Times, The Top 100 People to Watch in 2012:
"The breakout publishing sensation of 2012 will come courtesy of Palacio [and] is destined to go the way of Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time and then some."
"Full of heart, full of truth,?Wonder is a book about seeing the beauty that's all around us. ?I dare you not to fall in love with Auggie Pullman."
- Rebecca Stead, Newbery award-winning author of When You Reach Me
"It is the deceptive simplicity and?honesty of the work that make Wonder so memorable. Every single character seems real and well drawn and oh-so human...This book is beautiful." - Christopher Paul Curtis, Newbery award-winning author of Bud, Not Buddy
"A beautiful story of kindness and courage. There are many real and well-developed characters, and they each have their shining moments. Of course, Auggie shines the brightest." - Clare Vanderpool, Newbery award-winning author of Moon Over Manifest
"Wonder is a beautifully told story about heartache, love, and the value of human life. One comes away from it wanting to be a better person." - Patricia Reilly Giff, two-time Newbery honor-winning author of Lily's Crossing and Pictures of Hollis Woods
"Wonder is a shining jewel of a story?that?cannot help but encourage?readers?of all ages to do better, to be better,?in how they treat others in life. I'm totally in love with this novel."? - Trudy Ludwig, anti-bullying advocate and author of My Secret Bully, Confessions of a Former Bully, Better Than You, and Just Kidding
Starred Review, Publishers Weekly, February 20, 2012:
“Few first novels pack more of a punch: it's a rare story with the power to open eyes--and hearts--to what it's like to be singled out for a difference you can't control, when all you want is to be just another face in the crowd.”
Starred Review, Booklist, February 1, 2012:
“Palacio makes it feel not only effortless but downright graceful, and by the stand-up-and-cheer conclusion, readers will be doing just that, and feeling as if they are part of this troubled but ultimately warm-hearted community.”
Starred Review, School Library Journal, February 1, 2012:
"Palacio has an exceptional knack for writing realistic conversation and describing the thoughts and emotions of the characters...A well-written, thought-provoking book."
Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews, December 15, 2011:
“A memorable story of kindness, courage and wonder.”
