What I Take Away From Wonder
There are a lot of things that I liked, and that I learned from. But I’m going to tell you about a couple things that stood out for me. For example, Mr. Browne’s precepts, such as “Choose Kind”or “Your deeds are your monuments. I also particularly enjoy some of the quotes. Here is my favourite quote from the book.
Now here is my secret. It is very simple. It is only with one’s heart that one can see clearly. What is essential is visible to the eye.
– Antoine de Saint Exupery, “The Little Prince”
Some of the MAIN characters are:
- August
- Julian
- Jack
- Summer
- Via
- Justin
- Miranda
- Mom
- Dad
- Daisy
- Mr. Tushman
- Mr. Brown
- (That is just naming a few!!!)
Now, let’s move onto a topic which is, ATTITUDE
I DEFINITELY think that Julian showed some negative attitude towards August.
(e.g. leaving notes, criticising August, etc.)
But I ALSO think that August showed some negative attitude towards himself too.
(e.g. Criticising his facial deformity, saying he looked “ugly”, etc.)
If I kept going, it would take a long, long time… so, bye for now!
