We're All Wonders- children's literature Boys and Books

 

"Look with Kindness and you will always find wonder!"

    This beautiful picture book helps bring the wonderful message about choosing kindness to young readers everywhere.  This children's book about being kind has the same character and plot from NEW YORK TIMES best seller, WONDER.  The young character in this book is teased and bullied because he looks different from all the other kids.  When he feels sad, he puts his helmet on and his dog Daisy's helmet as well.  He is transported to Pluto where he looks back on the Earth.  He reflects on how the Earth is home to all different kinds of people and is big enough for all different kinds of people. There are people who are different and look different too, just like him!

He realizes that he cannot change the way he looks, but maybe, just maybe, people can change the way they see.  They'll see that they're wonders too.  We're all wonders!
