Creative Writing - Found Poem - Wonder by R.J Palacio

My name is August.
Auggie.

I'm not an ordinary ten-year old kid.

"We can't just pretend he's going to wake up tomorrow and this isn't going to be his reality."

I won't describe what I look like.

I'm sorry.
It'll be fine.

Frustrated.
Scared.
Sad.

"I'm not freaked out"
I lie.

"Pretending you don't exist."
It's so strange.

None of them looked like me.
Not one unicorn.

Sarcasm.

I don't know.

It's not easy.

I'll try my best.

I am pretty much totally and completely petrified.

Wow
Welcome to my life.

  1. I think you did a great job of choosing different words and sentences from throughout your book and putting them together in an incredible way that adds so much emotion and strength.
