Wonder is coming!

Our second term reading adventure, Wonder, is starting right now!

Get ready to see people from another viewpoint!

Here you are the official movie trailer:


 

Based on the New York Times bestseller, Wonder tells the inspiring and heartwarming story of August Pullman.  

Born with facial differences that, up until now, have prevented him from going to a mainstream school, Auggie becomes the most unlikely of heroes when he enters the local fifth grade.  

As his family, his new classmates, and the larger community all struggle to find their compassion and acceptance, Auggie's extraordinary journey will unite them all and prove you can't blend in when you were born to stand out.

The bestseller is already waiting for you at the School Library, on the ground floor. Do not miss another minute and get it!

En las calles no había más ruido que el rumor estridente de los remolinos de polvo, trapos, pajas y papeles, que iban de arroyo en arroyo, de acera en acera, de esquina en esquina, revolando y persiguiéndose, como mariposas que se buscan y huyen y que el aire envuelve en sus pliegues invisibles.                           ...
