I'm not even sure how it's possible but I loved Auggie & Me just as much, maybe even more than I loved Wonder! I love that way that R.J. Palacio writes, it's so easy to read and relative to. I love Julian, Chris, and Charlotte's story SO much!! The stories of Julian and Chris obviously intersect more directly with Auggie's story. What I love about Charlotte's story is that it gives a real perspective on circumstance and situations that really do arise in middle school. I think it helps parents, who were in middle school many moons ago, remember what they felt like that and also sheds some light on the more modern issues middle schoolers may face. It's easy as an adult to be so busy and consumed with things in the adult world to forget how crucial and shaping middle and high school years are for kids. Each story is hear warming and will leave you with tears of joy!

I would love to hear a story from Ximena's perspective about her brother Eduardito!

Even though this book was not as good as Wonder itself, it still was a cute and quick read!

It didn't quite pull on my heartstrings like Wonder did, but it was still enjoyable and worth the read. It was interesting having an insight into the side characters's lives, and I especially loved Charlotte's story where the mean-girl side of Beecher Prep was explored.

Lovely companion book to Wonder. While Auggie is a presence in each of the three stories he is not the focus as he was in Wonder. I think my favorite was Julian's, who is the "villain" in Wonder. There are always two sides to a story, which this shows.

Auggie and Me is a great book for those who like short chapters, best friends, sadness, but happy endings. It connects to Wonder and the characters are

Julian, Charlotte,and Christopher. I loved how all the characters learned a lesson in each story and how they flowed with that. I also liked how in the last part it was like a mystery that they had to solve. I really loved the ending and the whole  book is a back story on the book Wonder with the 3 characters. I gave it a 5 because it was amazing and if I could read it a certain amount of time I could know it word for word!
