I listened to this book on my iPhone and, while the narrator for the main character for Auggie was not my favorite, I really enjoyed the story. Auggie has a VERY severe facial deformity and he is going to go to a "real school" for the first time in his life for 5th grade. The author gives us glimpses of what Auggie must look like with great descriptive writing. Ordinary events become extraordinary with lots of unexpected drama, sometimes terribly disturbing and sometimes joyful. This is a great story!
