Wonder and WONDER some more

Lately this is the book that seems to be "talked about" and with good reason. I thought long about my review of Wonder, by R.J. Palacio, but I think the book trailer inspires the read more than I could:

It's a book which needs to be read... by everyone. I think everyone will identify with the characters who build the story as well as enjoy a couple cries here and there. Yes - I wept a few times throughout my read. The ending is a little corny and reminds me very much of the end of the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, but it IS a middle grade book, so it's perfect for the audience and also touching for the adult reader. 5/5 Stars.
