I also think that August might be one of the bully atracted type of kid , I mean he wears a ponytail for pete sake. Why I think that he isnt a lamb going to the slaughter is because he is very calm and a creative person  when Jullian said a word wrong and August was witty and corrected him . August is not the type of person that will instantly go to a teacher and snitch,so at least he does not have the lable a "snitch."  ]]> 2016-03-31 14:06:17 UTC https://padlet.com/katie_devine/wonder2/wish/103449975
