Ten-year-old August Pullman
(Auggie) saw himself as ordinary,
but no one else did. He has two
rare genetic conditions that have
changed the position and size of
his facial features. Christopher
was Auggie’s best friend, but he
lived a few hours away. Auggie’s
parents wanted him to go to a
school for his fifth-grade year,
instead of being home schooled.
Auggie went for a visit with his
mother, and he met Mr. Tush-
man, the principal. Mr. Tushman
treated him well. Auggie met
Mrs. G, who worked in the office.
Auggie met Jack Will, Julian,
and Charlotte. As they gave
him a tour of the school, Julian
tripped Auggie, just to be mean.
The other kids were nice to him.
