Wonder
Age: 7+ years
Auggie wore an astronaut helmet to school. He didn't take it off till was back in his car when his mother picked him after school.
But soon, he made friends and forgot about the astronaut helmet.
This is the story of a boy named August Pullman. He is born with a facial difference that, up until now, has prevented him from going to a mainstream school.
Looking for Alaska
Age: 13+ years
Miles “Pudge” Halter is done with his safe life at home. He heads off to the sometimes crazy and anything-but-boring world of Culver Creek Boarding School, and his life becomes the opposite of safe. Because down the hall is Alaska Young. The gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, self-destructive, screwed up, and utterly fascinating Alaska Young. She is an event unto herself.
After. Nothing is ever the same.
