August (Augie) Bellmann was born with a facial deformity, which prevented him from attending a regular school. When he reached the fifth grade, his parents decided to enroll him in Beecher Elementary School. Most of the time, if you are a new student, you will face many difficulties. But Auggie is an ordinary kid with a unique face. Will he succeed in convincing his colleagues that he looks like them despite his outward appearance?

This novel tells the life and societal hardships of a child born with congenital problems in his face, which made him a source of ridicule by some and apparent shock by others.
