  1. I thought it was cool when he decided to keep Baboo at home. He thought he was brave enough and that's awesome. But I don't really like how he's trying to change his image. Like not take the star wars bag and stuff.. like dude, just be yourself.

  4. When Jack and Auggie went to go to the bathroom and those kids started making fun of Auggie, I felt super bad for him! Like he didnt do anything wrong!! He just went to the woods to go to the bathroom and then they started being mean! Like really!! They are probably those kids that think the are "cool" for being mean to kids.

    1. Right I agree 100%! I wonder why they did that because his face may not look normal but that doesn't mean they have to say stuff like that.

  8. I think it was nice that Amos and his friends stuck up for August against those older kids. They are kind-of friends now. I think that means the war is kinda over, since they are on August's side.

    1. I think after a while people are going to have more respect for Auggie. And not be so mean.

      Delete
    2. Right!? So then it's only Julian, so he has no choice but to back down and end the fight.

      Delete
    3. I think the "war" is over because once Julian finds out what his friends did he has no choice but to stop

  9. Oh no! Poor August I felt bad for him when those bullies were teasing him. And when he was running from them he lost his hearing aids! His mother told him that those hearing aids were very expensive. But his friends made him feel better when he was crying they didn’t laugh at him. I thought that Henry and Miles were going to be mean but they supported him too.

  10. I think it was really mean that those other kids bullied. It was like back to the first day of school for Auggie again. I wonder why he lied to Mr. Tushman that he didn't know what they looked like.

  13. I think that it was cool when Henry and Miles cam and tried to get them away from the bullies. When the book said that it smelt like something was burning and there was smoke around I was wondering if those kids were doing something like smoking.
