S2 E71: Book review of 'Wonder' - children discuss why bullies emerge in schools and why they liked the author's style of writing
Listen now
Description
A group of 8-15 year olds joined us in reviewing the book 'Wonder' by R.J.Palacio. This is a powerfully narrated story about a 10-year old whose face looks nothing like what most people have. The book goes onto narrate the traumatic experiences he has in school, the friends he makes and how many children emerge from this story - stronger and braver. It is a story that resonates with many children as they see discrimination and 'inside jokes' almost on a daily basis in school.
Listen to the full episode to hear the conversation of a great many children who got together to read this book.
