PART VIII --
1. Auggie has
matured, we could see it in different scenes on Part VIII (A) when he asked to his mom for a
new duffel because the one that he had Star Warrs stuff is printed on it. (B) When
he decided not to take his teddy bear “Baboo” with him and that note that he
left to his mom, that says it all! (C) When for the first time he leaves home to a
school trip, it’s like he leaves his comfort zone to an out the box zone, and (D) the way
Auggie handled Eddie’s insults compares to his reactions in the past on
same circumstances.
2. Auggie
recognizes that it is important to be known. He will no longer
hide himself from people’s sight.
4 - Emblematic
moments: (A) The fight in the hood, Julian's friends now stand up for Auggie. It
shows that they accepted Auggie as one of their own), (B) the time of graduation
that marks the end of one stage of development and the beginning of a new one.
Question | Julian
is the only character who does not learn a lesson about kindness at the end of
this book. Why did Palacio choose not to have him change?
Julian embodies what Via said to Auggie early on in the book: some kids will always be mean. No matter how likable and friendly Auggie is, there will always be those kids who cannot see past his face. What Auggie learns, though, is that he does not have to keep those people in his life, and that things have a habit of working out for the best. It is important to move past unchangeable, negative opinions and not let them get to you.
