My name is August. I won't describe what I look like. Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse.

Auggie Pullman beginnt bald die fünfte Klasse an der Beecher Prep School, und als "der Neue" wird er es dort nicht leicht haben. Doch Auggie ist ein ganz gewöhnliches Kind mit einem außergewöhnlichen Gesicht. Kann er seine Klassenkameraden davon überzeugen, dass er genau wie sie ist, obwohl er so anders aussieht?
