Read the internationally bestselling book before you see the major Lionsgate film starring Julia Roberts and Owen Wilson. This special edition includes exclusive behind-the-scenes material. The unforgettable and life-affirming story of August Pullman - a boy who desperately tries to fit in but is destined to stand out. My name is August. I won’t describe what I look like. Whatever you’re thinking, it’s probably worse. Auggie wants to be a normal ten-year-old boy. He does ordinary things - eating ice cream, playing on his Xbox. Inside, he feels completely normal. But ordinary kids don’t make other ordinary kids run screaming from the playground. Ordinary kids aren’t stared at everywhere. Born with a terrible facial deformity, Auggie has been homeschooled by his parents his whole life. Now, for the first time, he is being sent to a real school. All he wants is to be accepted.
