POST #3 {W O N D E R}

Part 5, 6, and 7...

·        Justin and Miranda are going through family issues that make their lives difficult. Both of them feel comfortable to be surrounded with the Pullman family who it is a loving, caring, and united family that has remained completely integral despite the struggles presented by Auggie’s condition.

·         While Via is trying not to invite her parents and brother to her school event because she doesn’t want anyone notice about her brother syndrome. Ironically, Miranda used Auggie’s condition as an excuse to attract the attention of all the children in the summer camp and become the “popular girl” stating that Auggie is her brother and talked about his deformity.

·         Previously, Auggie forgave Jack for talking behind his back and became friends. Now, Via and Miranda put their differences aside and they are now friends. Act of forgiveness is present in the entire book.

·         In Part Six, I perceived a more mature Auggie, and a little more confident. Maybe it is because everyone at his school finally accepted him as he truly is [Don’t judge a boy by his face].

·         It was really generous of Miranda to pretend to be sick, so Via will take on her role. Since Miranda was her friend when they were children. Miranda perfectly felt that it was the moment for her friend to shine and be on the spotlight, but on the eyes of her parents. Miranda successfully accomplished her goal.

QUESTION | On Part Five, Miranda told Justin that “the universe has not been kind to Auggie.” What are your thoughts about her statement? Do you agree or disagree? Why?
