Why did August write a great essay for Mr. Brown’s precept. Octobers precept is ‘’Your deeds are your monument.’’ August thinks this is important because it doesn’t matter what you look like but what you to do for people. This makes you who you are. He also thinks what you do for someone they might change and might hang out with him more. He thinks if you judge the book by its cover you might not know what that person can do. He thinks your deeds are you monument because what you do for people they will all ways remember for who you are. It important to the book because to Auggie he understands it a lot people don’t want to touch him so they say terrible things about him. It’s important to the book because it has to do with Auggie getting bullied from people.
