AMAZING! I am a massive Wonder fan, and I loved reading Auggie's story through the eyes of everyone else. It was beautifully written, and my favourite story was Shingaling, although they were all amazing. I think, if you haven't, you should read this after Wonder as it is a great follow up read. 5/5!

it is one of my favorites as well, it is so emotional and it is like a back story. I actually feel bad for the bully,Julian, after i read this book

This is a fictional book. It is about a boy who looks different and he deals with a bully, an old friend and a new friend. I think this book is good for all ages and is a brave story. My favourite character was a character called Chris, because he is brave and funny. He is also very supportive and doesn't care what's on the outside of someone - only on the inside.

I did like this book but some of the parts were a bit dodgy and boring but I thought CHRISES was not I liked Charlotte best because she sounds a bit like me Im not sure if I would recommend it or not because I couldn't follow the story very well.

Fab book , second book of wonder. Crazy truth about Julian’s feelings toward August. Unlike other books this one has 3 different peoples perspective which is very interesting. This is a fiction book (made up), my favorite character was Julian because of what he felt in the end . Julian had done bad things then in the end he felt remorse. This interested me because it was such an enjoyable book to read. I would recommend this book to people who read Wonder ( 1st book ) , also for people aged 8+. Must read

I find that this book relates to the modern world. I think my favourite persons point of view is Julian. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes stories with mixed emotions.

I really enjoyed seeing what was happening in the other character's lives. My favourite story was Charlotte's. I really liked the way that it showed the trials and tribulations of middle school.

My Favorite character was Julian because he showed that no matter how you look at things there is always another side to it and even though he wasn't the nicest character it showed you how when you do something bad and sly you will never get away with it, not really. I would defiantly recommend this book to someone else. I liked the way it showed what happened in different peoples point of view.

This is a great book very thought provoking. Age: 10 or 11+ My favourite character: Julian as he learns over his mistakes and finds out about his past and Auggie. Three words: Emotional, Friendship, Disability This was definitely moving and heavily emotional

This book contains three stories that are based on the book Wonder. I enjoyed this book because the author showed the personalities of Julian, Christopher and Charlotte. I recommend reading Wonder before this.

This book was awesome and epic! My favourite character was a girl called Summer. I liked her because she is kind and a good friend to Auggie. She is also a good dancer. This book is fiction. It was less sad than Wonder. It interested me because in one of the stories there was a boy called Julian whose grandma told him all about when she was little and she met a deformed person. I would recommend this book to a kind person and a good friend.

This story explains the characters from 'Wonder' in more detail.

What I love about this book is that there are three amazing perspectives. In another way, you could say, the same story told in different ideas and feelings.
Queen Wanda Bouncy-castle 10.08.2020
it was a heart warming book about 3 kids who's lives were changed forever by the arrival of a new kid to there school
Mademoiselle Esmerelda Shortbread 08.08.2020
I like this book as it shows that there's lots of different perspectives and sides to every story, and that everybody has a different view on things. It is a brilliant companion to Wonder and I would recommend it to anyone who has read the book, otherwise it would be a bit hard to understand.

I really liked this book because it tells a different story from three people's eyes. Julian (the first boy) had a story where he went to see his grandma and that made him realise that he was bulling August. Christopher's story (the person in the middle) was about seeing Auggie and his mum was in a car accident. Charlotte's story (the girl on the right) was about girl drama and being in a dance. She was also telling people how she was in TV commercials when she was 6.
