My essay on Wonder by RJ. Palacio

Our reading task have been on a book written in first person by R.J Palacio. We had to answer questions about the Book and we also had to write a small essay which you can view below. I kind of like the book but I am more of a person who likes horror and scary books than nice books.

I think R.J Palacio uses first person when she tells ‘Wonder’. There are 3 examples as to why I think this.

Palacia has used first person in chapter 1 “ordinary”  at the start because he said  “I am not an ordinary ten year old kid” meaning that he used first person language because he said I and my.

August also says in chapter 2 “Why I don't go to school” when he said
“Next week I start fifth grade” meaning that he used first person language because he said I and my.
The last reason is that in chapter 3 “How I came to live” when he said I like it when mum tells me stories, It makes me laugh” meaning that he used first person language because he said I and my.


Therefore I conclude that Wonder is written in first person and is a great book to read so if you are looking for a nice book to read Wonder is the perfect book for you.

  1. Hi Shukoor, well done for taking on feedback and improving your work. I'm glad you're 'kind of' enjoying the book, even though it's not really your genre. It's great to listen to/read all kinds of books to broaden our minds. Great job putting this together!

  2. Great work Shukoor. Firstly it is great that you can be open-minded to explore all types of books because there are all types of people in this world. i am often amazed at how different people feel about different things.

    I love the way you have used examples from the text to justify your assertions and ideas. This is a great skill to develop as it helps you consider if your ideas are indeed correct.

    Keep up the great work.
