Mr. Browne\u2019s April Precept is:<\/span><\/h1>\n

What is beautiful is good. And who is good will soon be beautiful.<\/span><\/h1>\n

-Sappho<\/span><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

The author of <\/span>Wonder <\/span><\/i>(R.J. Palacio) probably put this precept in with a pretty big reason. The precept starts \u201cWhat is beautiful is good.\u201d August isn’t what you would say \u201cbeautiful.\u201d Some would say opposite. What is this \u201cbeautiful?\u201d Is my next question. Does it mean how he looks? We already went over that part. If it\u2019s how he looks, does that mean August isn’t good? This next part might help.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first paragraph went over the first sentence in the precept (What is beautiful is good). But now, we\u2019re going to take on the second one. \u201cAnd who is good will soon be beautiful.\u201d I\u2019m going to change this sentence a bit for now: And who is good is beautiful. Let\u2019s try to focus on that. My question on \u201cWhat is this \u2018beautiful\u2019?\u201d Might have gotten a step closer on answering. And who is good is beautiful. That means that the \u201cbeautiful\u201d means good! There\u2019s a cycle. <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What is beautiful is good<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Who is good is beautiful<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    But, remember, this is my changed version. The real version is \u201cAnd who is good will <\/span>soon<\/b> be beautiful.\u201d Let\u2019s focus on that bold word now. Soon. I think this word shows more than it is. I think it means that something good will soon happen to someone. August, maybe. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
