Tyler+M

1/26/16- At the end of the tour I had mixed feelings about where the story will go and how the characters can effect the storyline. I was happy to meet three to important characters, Jack Will, Charlotte, Julian.

2/2/16- Auggie's first month in the story "Wonder" talks more about how Auggie goes to school and becomes friends with Summer and make a table at lunch for people whose names relate to the season of Summer. Also, another important point in Auggie's first month is that he says to his father "Actually, it's better than okay." This sentence in the chapter puts a thought that says Auggie's year despite all of his facial deformities, he thinks that the school year will be a great year.

2/3/16- In Auggie's situation at school I would tell my parents and have them sort out a problem. But problems like Auggie's I try my best to sort them out myself, Especially when it has to do with friends. But I would inform my parents that things like this is happening, I would try to ask my friend about their opinion and their perspective so that way I don't have a biased opinion on the matter.

2/4/16- For Part Two about Via I wonder if the story will explain her look on Auggie's deformities. Also I wonder if they will explain her opinion about her little "fits" as they like to call them. Also one of the most burning questions that will stick out every time I read a book that has two people that narrate in their own part is what is Vias's experience at her school and does that have any effect at home for her.

2/9/16- I was most surprised about Via, is that her name is Olivia not Via, it's like Auggie his name isn't Auggie it's August. Another thing that totally took me by surprise was that when Via came home from the four weeks at Grans, not only did Grans die late on but when Auggie hugged Via she saw Auggie the way other people saw him. The last thing that surprised me about Via was her viewpoint on the world and her family.

2/9/16- I Felt that Via's view of halloween was different from Auggie's because Via didn't have any reason not to be in the halloween parade but Auggie did. Also when Via is talking with Auggie trying to convince him to be in the halloween parade, my brother would never do something like that, so that gives me information that Auggie and Via don't rely on each other but when one isn't acting normal the other notices and tries to help.

2/16/16- I believe that part five, Justin, is important to read so then the reader gets a different point of view of someone who doesn't know Auggie as well and meets him for the first time. This part probably most important for the words "The universe was not fair to August Pullman." These words resembles a picture that says Auggie is a kind, gentle, caring kid but he was given a burden to carry that he couldn't carry. And the part is important because of when Justin tries to scare Julian, Henry, and Miles. My first problem with what he did was that he had no business in what happened at Beecher and second our first impression of Justin from Jack's part is he nice, and he doesn't do things only for himself. This makes me think that this part plays a bigger role than the naked eye can see.

2/23/16- "But something was different. Something had changed." These words tell a lot it's like the saying a picture makes a thousand words, this is like a painting. There is no other way to describe it other than Auggie knew that news would spread, Auggie knew that what had happened was against the rules. Auggie knew that he would first, have to get new hearing aids and second, get questions from teachers about what happened when the teachers see Jack's bleeding lip. Auggie had seen Amos tell Ximena who told other people about what had gone down in the woods. He realized that now he might have Amos, Miles,and Henry to help support him at school, which pretty much took the "War" and how Auggie looked at school and almost entirely turned the tables. In the beginning of the novel Auggie only had a few friends to support him, but now he has a bunch of people supporting him. And if someone asked me anything about the book I would instantly talk about this line "But something was different. Something had changed."

Nothing But the Truth 1. I believe that parents should think that their child is telling the truth and also try to investigate the truth, because even though some kids mean well they might do something wrong and they don't want their parents to know. I also believe that parents should emotionally support their child/children but parents also shouldn't protect them always and that they should let their child/children solve their own problems sometimes. 2. I think that if their is a rule at school you don't understand you should ask a teacher and you should obey that rule, because if that rule states something important and you directly disobey it then the consequences could be dire. I would most likely disobey a rule that makes me do something that feels uncomfortable and wrong.
