A wonderful story of August Pullman who suffers from a congenital facial deformity. August has been homeschooled, but now that he's going into fifth grade, he decides to attend Beecher Prep. He and his family are admittedly nervous about how going to school will be for August.
The story is touching and told by several narrators in August's life who all share their perspective of the events. What endures is friendship and kindness and deciding what we want to be known for and how we want to be remembered.
Themes: friendship, acceptance, perseverance, adversity
