Pluto: A Wonder Story

Pluto: A Wonder Story

Summary

WONDER told the story of August Pullman: an ordinary kid with an extraordinary face, whose first year at school changed the lives and the perspectives of everyone around him.

PLUTO looks at Auggie's story through the eyes of his best and oldest friend, Christopher: who has been with Auggie right from the start, shares his love of space, Star Wars and the planets, and knows better than most that being part of Auggie's life comes with its challenges.

Poignant, surprising and utterly heartwarming, this is a must-read for the thousands of readers who loved WONDER.
