Reach for this book when your child is navigating the social complexities of middle school or struggling with the fear of not fitting in. It is a profound tool for parents whose children are either facing social exclusion or, conversely, witnessing others being treated unkindly. The story follows ten-year-old August Pullman, who was born with a severe facial deformity, as he transitions from homeschooling to a private middle school. Through multiple perspectives, the novel explores the ripple effects of kindness, the pain of isolation, and the courage required to be oneself. While it addresses heavy themes of bullying and medical trauma, its core message is one of transformative empathy. It is ideal for children aged 8 to 13 who are developing their moral compass and learning to look beyond physical appearances.
