Wonder Blu-Ray

Wonder (2017) follows August “Auggie” Pullman, a 10-year-old boy living in Brooklyn with his parents Isabel and Nate, older sister Olivia, and their dog Daisy. Directed by Stephen Chbosky and starring Jacob Tremblay, Julia Roberts, and Owen Wilson, the film is based on R.J. Palacio’s bestselling novel. Born with Treacher Collins syndrome, a rare facial deformity, Auggie has undergone 27 surgeries to help him see, smell, speak, and hear. After being homeschooled by his mother, Auggie’s parents decide to enroll him in Beecher Prep for fifth grade. Initially ostracized and bullied by classmate Julian Albans, Auggie forms a close friendship with Jack Will and later Summer Dawson. When Auggie overhears Jack making fun of his appearance behind his back, their friendship fractures but eventually reconciles as the story explores themes of acceptance, kindness, and finding inner strength.
