When we meet someone different from ourselves, we rarely see the full picture. In "Auggie & Me," R.J. Palacio brilliantly expands the world of "Wonder" by showing how one extraordinary boy - Auggie Pullman - transforms the lives of three different classmates. This isn't a traditional sequel but rather a kaleidoscope of perspectives that reveals how deeply our lives intertwine with others, often in ways we never fully appreciate. Through Julian, Christopher, and Charlotte, we discover that kindness isn't simply an action - it's a perspective that fundamentally changes how we see ourselves and others. Their stories remind us that behind every person we encounter lies a complex inner world shaped by fears, hopes, and experiences we can never fully know from the outside.
