He also continues to go as far as saying‚ “once you get used to his face‚ he is actually

In the book Wonder by R.J Palacio‚ Auggie is a little boy who lives with a severe facial deformity. His parents make the decision to send him to middle school for the first time‚ but is it the right one? In my opinion‚ Auggie’s parents make the right decision by sending him to middle school.

R.J. Palico wrote the book: Wonder. The main character: Auggie‚ he was home schooled up until middle school. During Auggie’s school year he had a more negative impact on his life.

In chapter five in On Liberty‚ this obligation is almost utterly disregarded in the instance of family relations

In the fourth stanza it says “You are beautiful no matter what they
