Was this book really necessary? It felt like a forced addition to Wonder, like by adding Wonder to the title, readers would think it was a worthy purchase. It's really not. You can find all these quotes on the Internet and there is NO WAY fifth graders talk or write the way they're written in this book.

Just some of my favorite precepts from this book!

Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards - Søren Kierkegaard

We love the things we love for what they are - Robert Frost

A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees - Father Faber

I cannot do all the good that the world needs, but the world need all the good that I can do -Jana Stanfield

Accept what you can’t change. Change what you can’t accept -unknown


Sometimes it is just good to sit down and be inspired. This book helps you accomplish that. Though I only included 5 there are 365 sayings, quotes, lyrics and so much more that everyone should read and think about. Each one really inspired me and will definitely stay with me for a long time. I finished this in a single afternoon and I was amazed how such a short amount of time spent with this book has changed the way I think about how I should treat other people, continue to go after my dreams, and just how to be a good human being

Este libro es hermoso y me encanta que contenga tantas frases y máximas inspiradoras. Todos deberían leer La lección de August y cada extra de Wonder que leo me lo confirma <3
