SRP 2013 REVIEW: This is an amazing story about a 5th grader named August who has facial abnormalities. The story shows his struggle to fit in in middle school, because it is his first time going to school. The story takes you through the perspectives of many of the characters and has a lot of twists and turns. It tells how August deals with new friendship dynamics, and it keeps the readers interest throughout the book. Overall, I believe it is an amazing realistic fiction book that everyone should read. It is extremely interesting to read.
